The Bewdley Festival programme organised for October 2020, but rescheduled because of the Covid 19 pandemic, would have been the 33rd consecutive edition of our multi-arts festival.
From the first festival held in 1988 the aim has been to:
“Bring the Best into Bewdley and the Best out of Bewdley”
through programming a mix of music, talks, comedy, drama and art, with performances featuring well-known stars, interesting personalities and local talent.
You can see images from some of our recent festivals by clicking on the Gallery Link.
In addition to the 10 days in October, Bewdley Festival presents events throughout the year, including literary events and community based projects such as the popular Duck House Trail.
Learn more in our “Art in the Community Pages”, where you will also read about the “Roots Music” weekends planned to be held annually prior to the main 10 days in October.
Festival offshoot Bewdley Youth Festival has organised events and opportunities for the younger members of the community since 2013.
These include the annual Wyre Forest Young Musician of the Year competition and many events at the popular Hopfest Family Music Festival. Read more about BYF activities here…
