KENILWORTH
ARTS FESTIVAL

CREATE, COLLABORATE, CONNECT.

Kenilworth Arts is an annual, multi-genre festival, launched in 2016. The festival takes place over 10 days in September with events, workshops and exhibitions being held in different venues around the historic town of Kenilworth, Warwickshire.

At the heart of our programming is a desire to celebrate outstanding, original new work within the contemporary arts.

Every year we bring together award-winning, internationally-acclaimed writers, musicians and visual artists from around the country (and beyond) for one-off events, transforming everyday spaces into magical venues and providing unique live experiences for audiences.

WE CELEBRATE
high quality, original work within the contemporary arts.
WE PROVIDE
a platform for ideas and stories which offer new ways of seeing the world around us.
WE SUPPORT
emerging artists.
WE OFFER
new and extraordinary arts experiences to people of all ages.

We've done it! With the help of Greenstage UK, we've built our very own eco-stage in Talisman Square, which will be set up throughout the Festival weekend. As part of our passion for environmental issues, which is woven throughout our programming this year, we are reducing the use of plastic in all areas of the Festival and ensuring recycling and upcycling and reuse as much as possible. Our eco-stage will also be available for use in the Kenilworth community in the future.

We can’t wait to see you tonight and this weekend! Please note that our licence is only for alcohol purchased on site and no outside alcohol will be permitted on the Festival grounds.
