What is FestivALL?

FestivALL is a month dedicated to celebrating the diverse and welcoming communities in Gloucestershire.

As well as a resource pack of simple ideas and guidance on how to include more people where you live, where you socialise or at work, there will also be events happening across the county you can join in with.

FestivALL aims to break down barriers in our communities across ethnicity, faith, ability, sexual orientation, class, age and gender and create opportunities for us all to discover more about the people, wildlife, places and organisations in our area.

FestivALL is all about coming together, talking, sharing and celebrating – but most of all, having fun.

FestivALL 2020 plans will be revealed soon!
