Whitchurch Conservation Group are delighted to announce that the two day Children’s Festival 2023 is a SELLOUT! 

We look forward to welcoming you all to a full weekend of all-inclusive activities for children in the beautiful meadow setting alongside the River Test and and fingers crossed, but the weather’s looking promising!

The theme for our 2023 festival is ‘bees’: all inspired by the beautiful landscape surrounding Whitchurch: the River Test, Heritage Mill Trail and North Wessex Downs Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty (AONB).

Our 2023 line-up includes:

* ceramics * jewellery making * weaving * origami * mural painting * printmaking * recycled art * willow weaving * bookmaking * dance workshops * author readings * dance performances * rhyme time and storytime * storytelling * poetry * live theatre * walkabout performances * music workshops * live music performances *

 as well as non-arts activities including

* donkey rides * inflatables * face painting * cookery *

All activities once inside the festival are included! 

Food will be available to purchase, but you are welcome to bring your own picnic, if you wish.

Sorry, no dogs permitted (other than Guide dogs and assistance dogs). No unaccompanied children.

Thank you to Arts Council England for their generous funding which has allowed us to provide the hugely subsidised ticket price.
