Free day-long entertainment festival promised for Gainsborough

A new free entertainment festival will be staged in Gainsborough throughout the day on Saturday June 17th.

The brand new ‘Revive Festival’, set up by West Lindsey District Council in partnership with Magna Vitae Trust for Leisure and Culture, will feature acts from as far afield as France, Germany and Spain for an event including group acrobatics, live music, dance, street theatre and a fabulous stunt duet. They will be performing alongside local and community music and dance artists in what is set to be an incredible fun-filled day.

Cllr Lesley Rollings, Deputy Leader of Council and Chairman of Prosperous Communities at West Lindsey District Council, is delighted the Festival will be coming to West Lindsey.

She said: “We are incredibly excited to be holding such a fantastic event within our District, celebrating the talents of artists both locally and across Europe. This certainly is a day for anyone of any age to enjoy”.

During the Festival, which runs from 9am to 6pm, there will be a Community Stage which will showcase some of the best local talent Gainsborough has to offer. The Revive Festival is working in collaboration with the SO Festival in Skegness and Mablethorpe to deliver a programme of international artists that showcase amazing theatre, dance, and arts.

Matthew Archer from Magna Vitae Trust for Leisure and Culture, who deliver the SO Festival in Skegness and Mablethorpe, said: “We have enjoyed working in collaboration with West Lindsey District Council over the past months to provide international artists to the residents and visitors of Lincolnshire and look forward to working together going forward.”
