BF14 Ideas and volunteers!

Though 2014 seems such a long way off, time flies. Why mention 2014 at all you ask? Because it will be the 50th Anniversary of the first Bollington Festival and we want to celebrate in style with another terrific festival. A "kick-off" meeting was held recently with those who have already agreed to volunteer to get their views about what the next festival might look like.


While no decisions have yet been made, all their thoughts can be found on the news page. We would also welcome your ideas, hoping you will step up to the plate and volunteer your skills and/or time to help make Bollington's future festivals sustainable.


Read the notes from the kick-off meeting and then share ideas to your heart's content here!

We would love to hear from you NOW if you would like to get involved in fundraising and getting sponsorship in place.


The rest of the website will be updated with new names as we get volunteers to take on the roles. However, if you've never been to a Bollington Festival before, the older part of the site will give you a flavour of the excitement that you can be part of.

Get a bonus DVD of time lapse photography of events as they unfolded.
