Bella and her companion, Kyra, will be at Common Have A Go fete at Colden Common Community Centre, Saturday 20 June, 12pm - 4pm.

Bella's creators, Wi******er's Animate Puppet Co, will also be there running a drop-in 'Have A Go Yourself' puppetry workshop where you can make your very own (simple) puppet to keep!

A big thank you to Irish Street Arts, Circus & Spectacle Network (ISACS Network) for generously supporting our visit to Festival of Fools in Belfast last weekend!

Our Projects and Festivals Producer Rose Slade spent the weekend experiencing the rich cultural, creative circus and performances from Ireland and beyond.

There were industry panel conversations and connections made seeing strong Irish shows in a great city - it certainly provided us with much inspiration for our next Hat Fair festival, returning in 2027.

While there Rose also caught up with our former Hat Fair director, Andrew Loretto, who gave the ISACS invited guests a tour of the city and the BEAT CARNIVAL making space.
