Great Malvern Festival of Stories for Children 2025

21 October 2025 to 26 October 2025

All available dates: 21 October 2025 to 26 October 2025

Taking place from 21 October to 26 October 2025, the six day festival will return across a number of venues throughout Great Malvern, with days for schools taking place during the week along with a fantastic weekend programme for families.

Formed by Malvern Hills District Council in partnership with Boffy Arts Events People the festival is a celebration of stories, with professional storytellers, children’s authors, illustrators, puppet companies, musicians, and theatre.

And, it’s all set in the beautiful hillside town of Great Malvern where the Victorian gas-lamps (which still exist today) inspired C.S Lewis to write Narnia’s – The Lion, The Witch and The Wardrobe.

As well as ticketed events, there are free storytelling sessions; art activities and stalls by local authors across the weekend.
