The 10th Beverley Puppet Festival returns to the East Yorkshire town 15th-17th July 2022. Giant, fantastical creatures roam Beverley’s historic streets. Tiny, magical worlds are revealed to unsuspecting audiences in the Friary Gardens. The best of UK and European puppet theatre is brought to venues throughout the town for residents and visitors of all ages to enjoy.

The programme includes a varied programme of free to access outdoor theatre for families, as well as indoor shows for different age groups. There are also children's workshops to teach skills in puppet making and performance. The event is community driven, not for profit and relies on funding to operate.
