Our FREE ENTRY annual community event is back for its fifth year on Saturday 12th July 2025!
We've made sure to book our favourite acts again, so there'll be fun for all the family with a hilarious magic show and circus skills workshop from children's entertainer, Krazy Kev! The incredible Urban Displays MTB team will be returning - their daring stunts wowed the crowd last year, and they will be back to perform two shows on the day. We'll have two flying displays from The Falcons Crest, who will also be offering handling of their stunning birds of prey.
Live music this year comes courtesy of Dorset-based Chill, a three piece pop-rock covers band who play everything from Kings of Leon to Bon Jovi via Madness. They're known as 'The Party Band' and they've played well over 1500 gigs since their formation in 1999, so we're guaranteed a good time!
We've got some fantastic new offerings this year too! Creative Kids will be running fun, free and educational 'Make & Take' workshops in the Craft Tent, so be sure to drop in and have a go! Steamship Circus will have a tightrope and aerial hoop set up alongside other circus props to try!
There will, of course, be the usual rides, games, stalls and delicious food and drink on offer, and we're pleased to announce the popular cash raffle will be returning, with prizes up to £1000!
As always we rely heavily on our wonderful team of volunteers to keep this a free community event. If you're able to spare some time - even just an hour - to help at this year's WESTIVAL, we want to hear from you!
Lastly, WESTIVAL wouldn't be possible without our amazing sponsors - a huge THANK YOU to all our wonderful local businesses.
