Presenting a rich calendar of cultural events in the heart of Chichester
The Festival of Chichester is a month-long celebration of the arts running in June and July each year in the historic city of Chichester, West Sussex.
For much of June and July each year, the Festival of Chichester brings a glittering series of around 100 events to the city, from concerts to theatre through to a whole range of talks, poetry and guided walks.
The 2025 festival runs from Saturday 14 June to Sunday 20 July.
Kind words
We wouldn’t have done it without you, and certainly wouldn’t have had the attendance we did. It’s given us confidence to do so much more.

Welcoming local and international performers
In 2024 we presented a truly exciting and varied line-up over five weeks, combining a brilliant programme of classical music with the best in jazz, blues, folk, rock, pop and world music.
Add thrilling theatre, book events, talks and poetry, exhibitions, walks, tours, cinema, open days and galas, and there really is something for everyone.
Grounded in the Chichester community, the festival aspires to the stars. We are pleased to welcome both local and international performers of the highest calibre.
