Lichfield Festival is a charity that delivers a vibrant year‑round programme of cultural events, including an 11-day summer multi-arts Festival, a springtime Literature Festival, a Chamber Music Weekend and annual Christmas concerts.

We believe the creative arts have the power to transform people’s lives and our aim is to engage and inspire through enjoyment, performance and participation. Our ASPIRE! learning and participation programme works with schools, community groups and charities on a wide range of projects, supporting people of all ages to explore the arts, build confidence, and discover their own unique place within the cultural life of the region.

Since 1981, we’ve welcomed world‑class performers, authors, and guests to Lichfield, creating experiences that entertain, challenge, and inspire. The generosity of our friends, sponsors, donors, and supporters ensures the Festival continues to thrive; increasing access to the arts and delivering joy and inspiration to all corners of the community.
