On Saturday 26 September Derby Festé returns for 2026. Fabric is delighted to be supporting this celebration of outdoor arts in Derby city centre.

Derby city centre will be transformed into a vibrant playground of creativity, as the city’s premier free outdoor arts festival promises a truly unique, family-friendly celebration right in the heart of the city.

The streets become a stage for a diverse, captivating, and spectacular line-up including high-energy outdoor dance and playful performance amongst an eclectic family-friendly programme.

Derby Festé will start at 11.30am and this year will extend into the evening, so you can experience Festé after dark.

More details including schedule and performance details will become available on the website here soon.
