Bangor’s biggest summer event is expanding in a way never seen before, and organisers are calling on charities, community groups, traders, and businesses to be part of it!

Last year’s festival was a resounding success, bringing joy and wonderment to families and attracting almost 10,000 visitors of all ages. The festival was a treasure trove of fun and excitement, creating lifetime memories for all who attended.  The event offered endless opportunities for interaction, whether it was watching live performances, participating in workshops, or simply enjoying the vibrant atmosphere and amazing market. The festival was truly uplifting, celebrating the spirit of community and togetherness.

Children’s faces lit up with smiles as they explored the various activities and entertainment on offer, while their laughter and excitement were infectious, spreading throughout the crowds. As families and friends came together, the festival became a truly special experience, one that would be cherished for years to come.

This year, the festival footprint is bigger, better, and bolder than ever, with exciting new areas designed to create a buzzing, vibrant atmosphere from one end of the High Street to the other. With thousands of visitors expected and an unprecedented publicity campaign, this is THE event to be at this summer—whether you’re a trader looking for the perfect audience or a community group eager to showcase your work. Co-Organiser of Bangor Summer Festival, Nigel Pickavance’s excitement for this event is clear.

“This is the biggest, boldest festival Bangor has ever seen, and we’re making sure that every corner of the event is buzzing with energy! The market will be packed, the community stalls will be thriving, and the festival atmosphere will be absolutely electric. If you’re a trader, charity, or community group, this is the event you need to be at—no question about it!”

Charity & Community Stalls – A Prime Festival Location!

The Festival organisers are thrilled to announce a dedicated charity and community area, offering discounted stall rates to local organisations looking to engage with the public in an exciting, high-footfall setting. This area has been strategically designed to be an integral part of the festival, ensuring maximum exposure and footfall for all involved. With headline attractions, high-energy entertainment, family-friendly activities, and festival-wide promotion driving traffic to this area, charity and community stalls will be at the heart of the action.  Carwyn Davies, Festival Co-Organiser, will co-ordinate this area of the Festival and is eager for prospective stall holders to be aware that ….

“The dedicated charity and community area is shaping up to be a vibrant festival hotspot. With so much planned to draw in the crowds, this is a golden opportunity for organisations to connect with the community. But don’t delay—places are limited and going quickly!”
