The Big Weekend
This year, our Festival is changing.
Our highlight event this year is the BosFest weekend, a real celebration of the arts. Come and enjoy two days of music, crafts, children's activities and food. All the much-loved events from previous years but this year even bigger and better.

The weekend will provide entertainment for the whole family.
There will be a variety of live music throughout, and plenty of food outlets so that you can enjoy two whole days on our beautiful park.
