About
A brand-new Children’s Festival is coming to Chesterfield. The festival will offer a free weekend of fun for families, including music, theatre, storytelling, dance, and art workshops.
Organised by Junction Arts, the festival will celebrate the joy of childhood, imagination, and play.
The two-day event will focus on arts and culture, with a number of acts and activities taking place over the weekend. Entertainment announced so far includes a silent disco tour, an interactive game zone, a comedy club, a circus, storytime yoga, tie-dye workshops, face-painting and a brass band that plays everyone’s favourite Disney tunes!
Music and live theatre will take place in and around the town centre during the festival weekend, the full line-up will be announced soon.
Junction Arts will also commission a new artwork on the themes of childhood, play and games to celebrate the launch of the festival. Three local primary schools in Chesterfield and surrounding areas will work with the artist during several engagement sessions in the spring.
