Norfolk & Norwich Festival 2020 has been cancelled

It is with regret that we have taken the very difficult but ultimately inevitable decision to cancel the 2020 Norfolk & Norwich Festival.

With the rapidly escalating health-crisis and with the safety of our audiences, staff and artists at heart, we have taken the decision that it is impossible for us to deliver the Festival this May.

If you have booked a ticket for the Festival, you do not need to do anything. You are entitled to a refund and we will be in touch soon. Please bear with us during this difficult time. If you have the capacity to make a donation of part or all of your ticket value, we would be extremely grateful – it would help ensure we’re well-placed to support artists and be able to present future Festivals.

Into innuendo? Dabble in double-entendre? Then be punctual for a Norwich special of competitive cult comedy hit, Pundemonium!

Guest pundits including writers, performers, comedians and poets compete alongside members of the public for the ! ‘Thyrannosaurus’ trophy, in a hilarious game show full of punishing linguistic challenges.

Seen at Cheltenham Literature Festival, TATE Modern and the Roundhouse as well as basement bars and Norwich Arts Centre, high profile previous contestants have included comedians Pippa Evans and Robin Ince, Timandra Harkness and poet Harry Baker. But we won’t have any of them this time.

A live game show by Rachel Mars and Daniel Pitt, for compulsive punners and their carers.

Interested in competing? Email: pundemoniumlive@gmail.com in advance with Norwich in the subject line.

Arts make life better

Norfolk & Norwich Festival brings tens of thousands of people together in celebration – it has been doing this for 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.
