On the first weekend in November, Darlington transforms.
The Darlington Arts Festival brings some 15,000 visitors to Darlington for a vibrant weekend of nature, art and community. Our much-loved community festival has helped celebrate and nurture artists, artisans, and performers for decades, creating special memories for generations of locals.
The festival features art and sculpture exhibitions, performances and workshops. Visitors enjoy browsing the DAF Art Shop and over 100 stalls selling local art, crafts, and produce. Take a break or meet up with friends at the festival’s social hub, the DAF Bar.
Volunteers
The Darlington Arts Festival brings together over 150 local volunteers to work together on the planning and running of the festival. It is an opportunity to learn new skills, meet new friends and participate in a lively community event.
