Witham Street Entertainment Festival is Back!

Formerly known as the Puppet Festival, Witham Street Entertainment Festival has become a main fixture in Witham's calendar. Held in the centre of town, the event regularly draws large numbers of visitors into the town to enjoy this free festival.  The festival, which is organised by Witham Town Council, has taken place since 1999.

Always held on the third Saturday of September, this year it takes place on Saturday 20th September between 10am-3pm.

A number of acts perform in the Newlands Shopping Centre, the Grove Shopping Centre and in Newland Street itself, where Witham Town Council closes the road between Collingwood Road and Maldon Road. Make sure you don't miss this great day out.
