A Festival Of Big Numbers

26,000 people were thought to attend the Festival in some form or another in 2006, with a festival that included four world premieres, an opera, two orchestras, six choirs, street carnivals and Circus Ronaldo.

A quote taken from the Festival programme reads:

“Even when we love the place we live and work in, it’s easy to take it for granted. The Norfolk & Norwich Festival is a great opportunity to rediscover the city and explore previously unknown routes and venues, says Jay Walker.”

Arts make life better

Norfolk & Norwich Festival brings tens of thousands of people together in celebration – it has been doing this for over 250 years. Through our May Festival and our year-round arts education work, focusing on children and young people, we lead and support celebration, creativity and curiosity in communities across Norfolk and the region.

This year we begin an exciting new initiative, Festival Connect & Create that will bring creative opportunities to those schools and communities with least provision. Creativity transforms people’s lives. It builds cohesive communities, develops vital skills and supports health and wellbeing. We want more people to have access to creative opportunities.

Please consider donating to support and develop this work. With your help we can increase access to the life changing power of the arts.
