Thornbury Arts Festival has been running for more than 50 years and during that time audiences have been entertained by a host of world class and nationally acclaimed performers.

For 2026 we were delighted to be back in our traditional “home” venue, The Armstrong, moving our dates forward to help celebrate the fantastic achievement of campaigners to bring it back into use.

Work has started on the programme for the Thornbury Arts Festival 2027.

The Thornbury Eisteddfod will take place in March, while the five-day Severn Vale Art Trail will be held over the early May bank holiday.
