We are sad to announce the cancellation of this year's Penshurst Festival

Following the success of 2019's inaugural festival, we had hoped to bring you another wonderful long weekend of events, talks, music, food and poetry in October 2020. 

Due to the effects of COVID 19 and government restrictions on mass gatherings and indoor events it will not be possible to deliver our planned programme.

We hope to be back in style in 2021.
