This gorgeous festival, one of our favourites, is back in its spiritual home - Kirkleatham Museum!! The historic site and surrounding grounds will once again host one of the most energising, creative, and slightly bonkers (in the best ever way) festivals that, from top to bottom, focuses on sustainability, inclusivity, community and, natch, imagination! A free weekend of arts, craft, performance, fashion, traders, workshops and food (including me!)  - make a date and hope to see you there.

Sat & Sun: 9am-5pm

Come and join artists, crafters and a few of us marvellous food and drink producers at this lovely annual summer fair in the gorgeous village of Brancepeth. From jewellery to beautiful hand-blown glass, paintings to plants, this is a real community where you can get a peek into a private castle into the bargain as seen on telly in 2025 with Penelope Keith in 'Saving Country Houses'!

Fri & Sat: 10-5pm, Sun: 12 noon-5pm.
