The Big Feast 2025

The Big Feast is* a two-day, festival-style event where you can see some of the best artists from across the UK – and beyond – on the streets of Hanley. It’s a thrill for the senses that often includes circus, outdoor theatre, singing, dancing and other things that simply defy description.

There is always so much to do and always plenty of interactive elements for you to join in with. The Big Feast is accessible for everyone, suitable for all, and free. Head to our What's On page to keep up to date with exciting artist announcements as they happen.

To find out more about how The Big Feast is made, see our Big Feast project page where you'll also see video highlights from previous years - and maybe even spot someone you know!

*The Big Feast is NOT a food festival.
