Fringe Outdoor Arts<\/strong><\/h2>\n

WATCH THIS SPACE<\/strong><\/h1>\n

Nothing came back just the same after the pandemic, and nobody needs to be surprised that summer 2022 isn\u2019t just a re-run of what should have happened in 2020: to do that would even be wrong. The artistic ecology and particularly the funding landscape has changed. This year, Bath Fringe didn\u2019t get\u00a0 grants for which we previously had a pretty good success record. That money usually pays for our free outdoor arts events, Bedlam Fair.<\/strong> As it’s jubilee weekend and we’re told there’s lots else on, perhaps you won’t even miss us – and we promise we’ll be pulling out all the stops to make sure it happens next year.<\/p>\n

There are a handful of outdoor events we know about happening on that same weekend supported by other funding and not part of our programming:<\/p>\n

\n

Calf2Cow<\/strong><\/em> are a young post-Bath-Spa outdoor theatre company based in the city. They will be showing their hour-long outdoor theatre piece \u2018The Wave\u2019<\/em> (suitable for all ages) as part of Bath Spa Uni’s SPARKFEST on Stall Street on Sunday June 5th at 2pm<\/strong>. More details here<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\n

In association with the Bath Arts Workshop<\/a> book & FAB, there may be an incursion of a classic Arts Workshop on Sunday 5th in the city centre. Be prepared!<\/h4>\n
\n

Bath&NES Outdoor Events for the Bank Holiday Weekend
\n– Saturday 4th June<\/h3>\n

Music in Parade Gardens \u2013 11am-5pm<\/strong>
\nB&NES Council present a programme of local bands and musicians on the bandstand in the glorious Parade Gardens to celebrate the Queen\u2019s Platinum Jubilee.<\/p>\n

BUT our friends the Natural Theatre Co.<\/strong> are doing this in Radstock on the Saturday:<\/p>\n

Radstock Jubilee Festival
\n<\/strong>St Nicholas Church Field, Radstock. 11am-5pm<\/em><\/h3>\n

Free outdoor arts event with a family friendly atmosphere. Finest theatrical acts, silly spectacle, quirky comedy and Bath’s very own Natural Theatre. Community stage showcasing the very best of our local talent; local stalls, food and have-a-go creative workshops during the day.<\/p>\n

Why not cycle from Bath to Radstock for the day through the Two Tunnels Path? It’s a glorious ride!<\/p>\n
