Taking place on Sat 24 and Sun 25 May 2025

Calling everyone from Tameside! This May the Den Festival is returning for four jam packed weekends!

The Royal Exchange’s touring theatre (the Den) is back in residence at Stalybridge Civic Hall and ready to welcome you. We’ve been working with a brilliant and passionate group of local Ambassadors and Champions to create a festival full of joy, surprises and celebrations! Expect music, workshops, shows, comedy, dance, drama, family mornings and much, much more.

See the work of budding young playwrights in Tameside on this weekend, as well as HER Productions’ remount of their highly successful rendition of one of Shakespeare’s most polarising comedies.
