Taking place on Sat 31 May and Sun 1 June 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.

This weekend brings the festival to a close as we laugh together at the Den’s comedy night, before we invite all of Tameside one last time to see the biggest show in the Den yet and celebrate all that has been achieved over the festival.
