We couldn't have wished for a more joyful Salisbury International Arts Festival 2025. Imaginations soared throughout the city with high-flying performers and community creativity.
6,000 people joined us in Market Square for Gorilla Circus' daring aerial performance of Unity during the opening weekend. The free event brought live performance to the heart of the city, with artist Louise Jordan's words gathered from local people providing a unique and moving soundtrack. International artists Darkfield inspired 1,105 people to take an immersive Flight in the intriguing 40ft shipping container which landed in Guildhall Square. Family Fiesta welcomed over 1,200 children and adults for free performances and activities, in a fitting celebration of 50 years of Salisbury Arts Centre.

We've loved bursting out of our venues and into the beautiful spaces of Salisbury and its surrounds, from the iconic Stonehenge to the beautiful St Thomas' Church and Rack Close. With an incredibly talented array of artists and the generosity of our supporters, we've welcomed new audiences and visitors to Salisbury - enabling the city to thrive with creativity and pride.
We can't wait to share plans for 2026!
