Great Stour River Fest 2024
Various Venues, River Stour CanterburyGreat Stour RiverFest returns for its second year Each year, thousands of people visit and enjoy the beauty of the River Stour, the second longest waterway in Kent and once a key Roman trade route connecting Britain to Europe. People picnic along its banks, rejoice in a relaxing river tour or walk along the footpaths that offer glimpses of the river. The City of Canterbury has many great attractions, from St Augustine’s Abbey and Canterbury Cathedral to the award-winning Westgate Gardens. However, one of its greatest jewels meanders silently through the city centre while providing space for nature and people. It’s appreciated by many but celebrated and cared for by only a few. The jewel in question? The Great Stour River. Thanks to Canterbury’s devoted local communities and their passion for promoting and protecting this asset, we are excited to announce the second annual Great Stour RiverFest will be running from 14-22 September 2024. Expect a week of wonderful Stour-related events aimed at celebrating its historical, cultural and environmental interests.
