The Coventry Society is pleased to be participating in the River Festival 2023 next weekend. We hope that you will join us there!
Join the fun at the brand-new River Festival – coming to Millennium Place, on Saturday 17th and Sunday 18th June!
Did you know that the River Sherbourne flows under the city, right beneath our feet? Get involved as we celebrate community, art, nature and the connections water gives us across the world.
With a completely FREE, family friendly programme of live music, theatre, DJS, crafts, dance workshops, poetry, installations, new digital art, face painting… there’s something for everyone! River Festival Coventry will show off the best that our city has to offer, bursting with creativity from local artists.
The first ever River Festival is delivered by a collective of organisations at the heart of the city, coming together to celebrate as we showcase our creative, digital, cultural, environmental and engineering sectors.
