Bury St Edmunds Festival

Bury St Edmonds is 10 days of great music, theatre, film and exhibitions with a packed and varied programme of events at The Apex, the Theatre Royal, the Abbeygate Cinema.

The festival’s predecessor in the early 1980s was a number of weekends of words and music and so to go back to the roots of the festival. You will find wonderful music, fascinating speakers and as well as mixing together words and music we will also be pairing music with film, music with art, classical music with jazz and ballet with juggling!

One of the reasons that the festival is still going strong after 30 years is thanks to the continued generous support of its funders, sponsors and the Festival Friends alongside the ongoing commitment from volunteer stewards and helpers and everyone involved at all the venues and other locations.
