This year our theme is storytelling, not just the kind found in books, but the stories we live every day, told through music, art, laughter and conversation. 

 

This year also marks the centenary of some beloved storytellers and tales such as the publication of Winnie the Pooh and the births of Elisabeth Beresford and Michael Bond, creators of The Wombles and Paddington Bear respectively.

​

Whether you’re here to perform, participate, or simply to enjoy the ride, this festival is a space for everyone to celebrate the unique spirit of our village.
