Crediton's Flower Festival has had a long history.

The theme this year is 'National Treasures', which celebrates people, places, events and precious things which we value as part of our national heritage.

Come and see how our floral artists meet the challenge of interpretating this theme with spectacular and intriguing floral displays. These are linked within an interesting exhibition which will both inform and entertain visitors. This year we are also part of the wider Crediton Festival. There will also be stalls, an exhibition by the Newton St Cyres Art Group, excellent refreshments and light meals, and church tours.

Coach parties are welcome at our Festival but pre-booking of both the visit and any refreshments are essential. Contact Sue Sparling Tel: 01363 776681 or email: creditonbookings@gmail.com for further information.

Crediton Parish Church is known for its wonderful choir and music. Why not enough the whole day and stay for Festival Evensong on Sunday which starts at 6pm?

This is a major fund raising event towards the ongoing maintainance and upkeep of this fine 15th Century Grade 1 listed building and is now one of the premier events of its type, attracting visitors from all over the South West.

Open Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday and Saturday 10.30am-8pm; Thursday 10.30am-5pm and Sunday 11am-6pm.

Free entry and parking. Refreshments refreshments are provided in the nearby Boniface Centre, adjacent to the church.
