A Festival of Music and Flowers

Following the success of the last festival in 2018, Jacqueline Kolkowski, Shreya Patel and Kath Michaels are working hard to deliver another vibrant, joyful festival celebrating everything that is special in our community.

The main legacies of the last festival are the very popular and delicious weekly pop-up café, plus we raised almost enough money to have an on-site compostable loo!

This year we hope to go bigger and better than ever! The scale and variety of floral arrangements in 2018 resulted in a magnificent display, and, in its own right, brought lots of visitors to St. Peter’s. But it was the variety of music that seemed to attract the most attention. Taking that in account, even more musical acts have been booked to provide free music for all during each day of the festival with ticketed evening concerts on Friday and Saturday (see programme in Attached Documents below). Ticket information will follow shortly.

The theme for the festival in 2025 is Carnival - a celebration of our church and community. The church promises to be a riot of colour as varied floral displays reflect the spirit of carnival be that in a religious or secular sense. There even might be a competitive element this time plus we hope to engage the talents of the children and young people living in our community. Watch this space!

Throughout the festival the pop-up café will be serving light refreshments during the day and there will be a licensed bar in the evening.

A festival of this scale is costly but with fundraising and sponsorship we hope to cover most costs ahead of the doors opening. A number of local businesses very generously supported the festival last time; please do get in touch if you would like to be a sponsor - sponsorship packages attached (information in Attached Documents below).

Any questions, please get in touch. Thank you, in advance, for supporting this event.
