Make a day or weekend of it
As well as the main Festival and Monty Mini Fest, there’ll be so much to see and do in Montgomery that you’re sure to want to make a day or weekend of it.
Browse our art exhibition, have a go yourself at our art workshops and listen to some street music. Treat yourself from an array of tasty treats on offer throughout the town. Take a walk up to our historic medieval castle; visit The Robber’s Grave in St Nicholas Church’s churchyard or just soak up the local atmosphere.
