Ware Festival 2025 theme and plans for 2025 announced
Following the recent first meeting of the 2025 Committee, Ware Festival 2025 is shaping up to be an exciting and vibrant celebration, with a fresh new identity and a packed schedule of events. The festival will kick off on July 4th with a huge welcome back to the River Festival hosted by the Lea & Stort Branch IWA, offering a fantastic weekend along the water.
Carnival Day & the Town Fair takes place on July 5th, where the theme ‘Colour Rush‘ promises a bright and lively Carnival Parade and will bring a burst of colour to the streets. This year, the event will support two important local charities, Isabel Hospice and Southern Maltings, which are well-known within the community.
The festivities continue with a series of events, including:
- Riverside Real Ale Festival, Pavement Artists Competition, Raft Race, and Putting Competition all on July 12th.
- Ware Festival of Running on July 13th
- A Rock Legends concert on July 13th.
- The 11th Annual Food Festival on Sunday, July 20th—a change from its usual timing.
- Old Town Live Ware is expected to take place on Saturday, July 26th.
This lineup promises to offer something for everyone, from music and food lovers to those seeking fun activities for all ages. Make sure to mark your calendars for a month full of local celebrations and entertainment!
Application forms for the Carnival Parade and Town Fair will be available in the New Year.
