The Tipton Canal & Community Festival is returning after a 4 year break over the weekend of 21-22 September 2024.  It will include a gathering of around thirty historic narrow boats - most on the National Register of Historic Vessels - plus trade boats, land based stalls and entertainment.  Some of the historic boats will be open for the public to take a look inside. 

The last event of its kind was held more than four years ago and the good people of Tipton have missed their Canal & Community Festival!  A determined group of volunteers met in early November 2023 and vowed to bring this vibrant and much-loved celebration of the region's waterways back by any means possible.

This is your chance to join in - either as a willing volunteer or simply a visitor who enjoys a good day out.  As in the past we will be inviting canal boats from across the Midlands, we will have stalls, crafts, floating traders, boat trips and children's activities.  In fact, something for all the family.

So please show your support and prove to us that all the effort will be worth it. We will be bringing you the relevant information as it becomes available. Meanwhile, please have your say in shaping the event by joining in with our social media channels.
