Come and see the ancient craft of Well Dressing and explore beautiful Bollington during our festival week.

This year, Bollington's Well Dressings will be publicly available to view between Friday 22nd May and Friday 29th May 2026. There will be dressings in four locations this year.

Petalling will take place in the Bollington cricket pavilion between Monday 18th and Thursday 21st May and volunteers are always welcome! We will additionally have a community board in the festival tea tent where you can enjoy some refreshment and also have a go at this traditional skill.

Our theme this year is Volunteering and we have chosen to celebrate some of the amazing volunteer organisations that we benefit from here.

This is a family friendly event.
