Britain's What's On Event Guide
Ripon Theatre Festival
Four days of drama, street theatre, circus, dance, puppetry, storytelling and more. Events and activities for all ages, both indoors and open-air. Performance and fun to brighten the unique city.
More than 20 professional theatre companies and acts crammed into four days and more than a dozen venues from small back rooms and cafés, green spaces and city streets. A mixture of ticketed and free performances across a beautiful little city.
Drama highlights include the award-winning company Illyria's adaption of Robin Hood, an action-packed heist for the whole family. This fast-moving production delivers huge laughs, swashbuckling adventures, and well-deserved revenge!
Pack a picnic and cheer on the underdogs for an outdoor theatre experience at Fountains Abbey.
Children and families will be spoilt for choice across the whole weekend with a mixture of free and ticketed events for all ages.
Storytelling by Gav Cross and various puppet shows at Ripon Library, Ripon Minster Gardens, Ripon Little Bookshop, The Unicorn Hotel, The Greenhouse and the Marketplace are sure to entertain!
