Venues across Watford will be hosting more than 50 acts putting on an extraordinary live line-up of great theatre, music, comedy, dance, magic and family fun-filled shows. As well as running for longer this year, the festival now includes outdoor performance spaces for the first time.
We've got everything from pre-Edinburgh shows and returning favourites, to local talent, special youth performances, award-winning acts and premieres of new material. Whether you're looking for opera or drag, belly laughs or emotional drama, there's a show for you.
The Festival takes place from 1 July to 4 August. It is organised by the Watford Pump House in partnership with Watford Borough Council, Watford Palace Theatre and the Watford and Three Rivers Trust.
This year there will be 15 different performances spaces - the most the Festival has ever had. They include the Watford Pump House, Cassiobury Park Bandstand, The Garden Rooms, The Wellspring Church, St Mary's Church, Cheslyn House, The Barn, the LP Cafe, Mad Squirrel and Watford Palace Theatre.
