Leamington Peace Festival 2008

The Leamington Peace Festival, running for nearly 30 years, is a free festival that aims to promote an understanding of international peace in all its aspects. This includes: environmental harmony and living in cooperation with others; enabling organisations and individuals to participate during the festival weekend; raising awareness of world and local issues by giving individuals ways of becoming involved in the world around them; providing an opportunity for local crafts people to demonstrate their skills and display their crafts; promoting fair trade practices and encouraging local artists and entertainers to share their skills.

Music is interspersed with talks on peace and other global issues. This year's line-up has not yet been announced.

The festival features two entertainment areas, a children's tent, a workshop tent, and over a hundred stalls representing charities, religious and philosophical groups, healers, pressure groups, craftspeople, and fair traders. The Festival runs from 11am - 9pm on Saturday, and 11am - 6pm Sunday.
