Cheltenham Festival of Performing Arts

Who we are

Cheltenham Festival of Performing Arts is Cheltenham’s oldest Festival and is held in May each year.  The Festival’s usual venue is Cheltenham Town Hall.

There are usually over 300 classes to choose from in three categories: Music, Dance and Drama. We encourage all ages to enter and join in the fun.

We provide a stage where children and adults can perform to their peers and receive constructive feedback from our eminent professional adjudicators.  The atmosphere is friendly and everyone is welcome to come along and provide encouragement.

The Festival is a charity set up to foster education in the arts.

We have a strong team of Volunteers and Friends who provide valuable support to the Festival.  Do volunteer to help – there are many ways in which your services would be appreciated.
