The first weekend in July 2009 will see the return of a festival to the River Avon in Stratford, taking over the weekend slot previously occupied by the Saul Festival.

Located on Stratford’s world famous river-front, and part of the adjacent recreation ground, the festival will comprise a boat gathering, craft and trade show, as well as land and water-based entertainment.

The aim of the festival will be to promote the River Avon and the benefits that it brings to both the local community and visitors from further afield. It will highlight both the importance of maintaining and improving the existing navigation, and the benefits of extending that navigation to Warwick and the Grand Union Canal.

Concessionary Avon licences will be available, not just to those visiting Stratford for the festival weekend, but also for those wishing to make a through transit to Tewkesbury and the River Severn. The Stratford River Festival provides boaters with an ideal opportunity to make a visit to Stratford and the River Avon a key part of this summer season’s cruising itinerary.

For further details, including booking forms for both boaters and traders, please visit www.stratfordriverfestival.co.uk or phone 01789 299011.
