Waterloo Festival

Annual arts and community festival established in 2011.

Each year's programme will focus in different ways on the effect and legacy of wars on communities and on people.

St John's Waterloo is working closely with local residents, institutions, artists and musicians, community groups and others to create a festival which engages local communities with big questions, in creative and imaginative ways.

Bringing together diverse groups in Waterloo, using the past to inform the present, the festival will showcase the life of Waterloo in a new and different way.
