The arts take a wide variety of forms, from music through to dance, drama, painting, pottery and other crafts.  Trinity Festival was a new event in the calendar for 2021 at Holy Trinity Church in Barrow upon Soar that celebrates all arts and creates a platform for local talent to be enjoyed by everyone in our community.  We are excited to be bringing it back for a sixth time in 2026.

​​​

The event runs on the weekend of 9th -11th October 2026 and includes two evening concerts, special bell ringing and an arts and crafts fair.
