As befits Norfolk’s Town of the Year, Market Day on the 20th August offers a colourful opening day with a market and street entertainers.

Natural Theatre Company bring the Flower Pot Heads and the Literary Greengrocers to town – their surreal stall displaying fruity fiction and leafy literature!

There will be live music all over town including a Chamber Orchestra in St John’s Church as well as Acoustic and Folk Gigs taking place throughout the Festival.

Sit down for some terrific stand up from the Red Card Comedy Club at the Apollo Rooms. A literary lunch time event will explore the writings of a well known local author.

A free Family Fun Day on the 25th will celebrate the Cultural Olympic handover from Beijing with some Chinese themed entertainment that will include a cycling panda and an enormous dragon sculpted entirely from balloons.
