Britain's What's On Event Guide
Princes Risborough Summer Festival
Princes Risborough’s High Street will come alive on Saturday 12th July with vibrant entertainment, a wide variety of community stalls, and a fantastic display of community spirit, promising a day of fun for all ages.
No Risborough Street Festival would be complete without a trip to the beach – and this year is no exception! The much-loved man-made beach will be making its return to Market Square, offering a seaside escape right in the heart of town.
Get into the festival spirit with fabulous, festival-themed face painting. From 1:00pm to 6:00pm, the talented team from Sunday’s Faces will be offering free face painting.
As you explore the variety of stalls lining the High Street, keep an eye out for the spectacular peacock stilt walkers as they bring colour and charm to the festival grounds.
From 2:00 pm onwards, Bucks Bear will also be making a special appearance, thanks to the support of Bucks Radio. Don’t miss the opportunity to snap a photo or share a smile with these beloved characters.
The main stage will be set against the backdrop of the iconic Market House building. Throughout the afternoon, attendees can enjoy a lineup of entertainment, including performances by local schools, performing arts students, and live sets from Leech, The Weathertop Preachers, and The Groove Generation.
Bringing a sense of magic to this year’s festivities, a giant bubble artist will delight audiences with displays of floating, glistening bubbles that dance in the summer sunlight.
Young adventurers are invited to join hands-on circus skills workshops with a playful pirate twist. Workshops will be running from 2:00PM to 5:00PM. No experience is needed, just a sense of adventure and a willingness to get involved in the fun.
Back by popular demand, the steel band will once again bring its uplifting rhythms to the High Street.
The main sponsor of the 2025 Risborough Summer Festival is Lightfoots Solicitors.
