Festival Roundup!

We had an absolute blast at our first ever festival. Thanks to everyone who played their part!

Bingham Lane Festival was a pilot festival, bringing together a cohort of creative and cultural venues all located around the central pedestrian Bingham laneway. This historic part of Bangor came alive with decoration and lighting, and our own yard became a hub for live music and a place to sit and gather with friends.

It was a perfect recipe of creative minds meeting to make magic! Printmaking was at the core of this festival, and this shone through the curated events, demos and interactive activities we had carefully planned.

A massive thank you goes out to all our amazing volunteers who helped the festival to run so smoothly. Also to all those employed for their knowledge and expertise. We had an amazing team behind us.

Lastly a thank you goes out to our main funders: Community Festival Fund from Ards and North Down Borough Council and Department for Communities for Northern Ireland, Clanmill Housing Association – who sponsored the Pastethebay initiative, and our principal funder Arts Council of Northern Ireland.

Now, what next?!
