Welcome to
When a town comes together
We are looking forward to another fantastic wide-ranging community programme for New Mills Festival 2024!
The festival is an eclectic mix of musical, comical, food & drink, social, sporty, performing art, and downright obscure events that showcase the skills and personalities of New Mills.
We will be open for event submissions from January and pretty much anything goes – get your thinking hats on! Message info@newmillsfestival.co.uk if you have any ideas, questions or want to join the NMF planning team.
What is New Mills Festival?
New Mills Festival is a community festival in New Mills, High Peak, a small mill town nestling at the foot of the Kinder Plateau. The Festival is fuelled by community spirit, supported by volunteers, businesses, artists, performers and creative thinkers. Our Festival started in the mid 1990’s by the head teacher at the local secondary school who wanted to bring together the many groups and organisations in the town as a celebration of community, culture and arts.
It worked!
