Kenilworth Fringe Festival 2026

Kenilworth Fringe, a new week-long arts and culture festival, will be happening for the first time in February.

Running February 2-8, Kenilworth Fringe will feature a wide variety of events focusing on books, music, art, culture and politics, at venues all over the town.

​The theme of the Fringe is place and place-making. Writers, musicians and artists will contribute to events throughout the week suitable for all ages, with two full days of activities on Saturday and Sunday February 7 and 8.

The activities fall into three categories:  Words & Ideas, Experience, and Make & Do.  Words & Ideas invites you to listen, learn & share with writers, speakers & specialists.  Experience encourages you to sit ack and enjoy music, theatre, poetry & art.  Make & Do encourages you to join in with a range of activities and classes aimed at beginners in dance, a range of crafts (for adults & children) and aerial hoop amongst other things.

Many events are free of charge, but some are paid, with tickets available here on the Kenilworth Chamber website OR pop into the bookshop to buy tickets over the counter.
