Oxford Festival of the Arts

Oxford Festival of the Arts is proud to be the city’s arts festival, curating exhibitions, events and experiences across all art forms.   
Our mission is to offer a broad programme of performances, events, and experiences embracing music; classical, contemporary and new, theatre, visual art, film, dance, comedy, and literature. We celebrate Oxford’s diverse communities and offer something for everyone, whatever their age, background or artistic experience.

The Oxford Festival of the Arts was founded by Magdalen College School and the first festival took place in 2009. The school remains our lead sponsor and greatest supporter.
