Burnley Canal Festival 2024

Burnley Canal Festival is produced by Mid Pennine Arts and Super Slow Way .Visit the beautifully refurbished Finsley Gate Wharf and along the towpath nearby.  Enjoy lots of family-friendly and creative activities; relax listening to music; eat lots of lovely street food and maybe get on to the water too.

Look out for the giant and his mate Jack; flower displays that can’t stay still; a sky full of magical bubbles; dancing Wallopers, and possibly their horse, and go on a quest with the Towpath Explorers.  You can visit the amazing Exbury Egg; a floating museum, and browse the arts and crafts market.

Burnley Canal Festival is a fantastic way for visitors to celebrate the fantastic resource that is the Leeds & Liverpool Canal, and Burnley’s unique canal-side heritage.
