Welcome to Whirligig! 

Super Culture’s award-winning, flagship festival returns to Weston-super-Mare once again to bring an outstanding programme of international outdoor arts to the coast. This year’s Festival takes place in new, exciting locations that link up the town with the seafront, creating an extra splash of vibrancy and fun for everyone to enjoy.

This year, Whirligig has a sea view!  Find us at…..

Princess Royal Gardens – Regent Street – Big Lamp Corner

The weekend includes ticketed performances on Friday & Saturday evenings of ‘MDR – Death From Laughter’, with a daytime programme on Saturday & Sunday of free, festival acts from UK and Europe, spilling bucket loads of continental culture onto the seaside streets!

We’ll be on hand to help direct you from one show to the next and you can follow the brightly coloured festival flags! 

Whirligig Festival is made possible thanks to funding from Arts Council England and is supported by partners, Without Walls.
