About us...

Wotton under Edge Arts Festival’s aim is to encourage artistic talent, both local and from further afield.  The endeavour is to present a varied programme of arts to appeal to all the community.

The longevity of the Festival is due in no small part to its strong community base and the support of local people and organisations.

2019 Wotton Arts Festival

The 49th Festival planning is now under way, and details are to be found on other pages.  There are some new events this year, as well as many of the popular items.  The main Festival dates are 26th April to 5th May, but on 14th April Wotton Silver Band celebrated its 125th anniversary together with top section Cory Band in a concert in Renishaw's Innovation Centre.  St. George's day was celebrated in beautiful weather on Saturday 20th April at the Town Hall, with many enjoying the Morris dancing and toasts.

We hope you enjoy this Festival, and find some events you really want to attend.  But, do please let us know (via our contact form) if you like (or don't like) what you see this year.  Your feedback, good or bad, is valuable to us, and will help us to keep our Festival alive and up to date with current tastes.
