There is another new, or rather a reformed festival, on Wiltshire’s cultural landscape. ChippFest 2015, is the new incarnation of Chippenham Arts Festival. Andy Thatcher and Brian Reid at Chippenham FM decided to take up the challenge for this year when the original organisers decided to step down.

It is now a 10 day celebration of local artists, music, literature and theatre with some very special guests from overseas, running from Friday 26th June to Sunday 5th July 2015. There are over 60 different acts appearing at 20 different venues in Chippenham Town.

The programme is available online at http://www.chippfest.org – keep an eye on the website for any updates and changes.
