Barnaby 2018 update

It’s hard to believe, but Barnaby’s now only a matter of months away  (June 15^thto 24^th 2018). To find out how the programme’s shaping up and how you can be involved,  just pop along to St Michael’s on Wednesday 28^th Feb. If you can’t make it, don’t worry – there’ll be other meetings in March and April, or you can email mail@barnabyfestival.co.uk to tell us you want to take part.

The first Saturday of Barnaby is traditionally Parade day, and 2018 is no exception. If you’re involved with a local group, this is your chance to be a part of one of the best town parades in the country! Whether you’re a regular participant or a newcomer, it’s easy to get started. Parade organisers Macclesfield Community ArtSpace can offer ideas and inspiration around the Roots/Routes festival theme, and they also provide hands-on help with the practicalities. For more information and to register your group, visit the ArtSpace website.

Barnaby is one of Macclesfield’s greatest cultural assets, and we want to keep it that way; but Barnaby can’t happen without the town’s help. Every year it gets harder to find public money to cover the Festival’s costs, so if you, or your company or organisation, can offer Barnaby financial support we’d love to hear from you. You can email mandy@barnabyfestival.org.uk and find out how you can help keep Barnaby working for Macclesfield.
