A family festival celebrating arts and literature will kick off soon.

The annual WhizzFizzFest is celebrating the creative arts and children’s imagination across Buckinghamshire this summer. 

Originally inspired by Roald Dahl, the free festival offers performances, crafts and music among others.

For the first time ever, the festival has now grown into a three weekend tour across Buckinghamshire, with family fun on in Aylesbury, High Wycombe and Chesham in July.
