Creation Fest 2015

Creation Fest 2015 returns to the Royal Cornwall Showground this summer. It has has grown over the past 13 years to become a major 7-day Christian music festival. It began as a one-day event in 2002 by the beach at Woolacombe, North Devon, aimed at the surfing community; but after relocating to Wadebridge seven years ago it has become the largest FREE Christian festival in the United Kingdom. It is often recognized for the bright orange banners, posters, and volunteer shirts which bring a splash of colour to the Cornish summer each year.

The main content in 2015 will be the same as in previous years - a mix of Christian music and teaching, interspersed with fun, sports and activities around the Showground. There will be a few new innovations this year, such as Glamping - for that extra bit of luxury for those who require it!

Creation Fest always features gifted Christian musicians - some well known, and others less known - and showcases a wide variety of artists, ranging from acoustic to rap/hip hop, and solo to bands, from several countries.

The large, covered, wooden skate park, with several ramps and trick features, will be at CF once again for skateboarders, scooters, BMXers, and rollerbladers all to enjoy. There will be sessions for each group, and for different ages. Pro skaters will include Brian Sumner, originally from Liverpool, coming from Huntington Beach (California, USA) to do skate demos and provide some coaching.

Families with children are most welcome at CF, and there is a free daily kids’ programme filled with activities, crafts, games, and music for ages 5-11. (Younger children are welcome to sit in, but must be accompanied by a parent or guardian.) Last year, more than 500 children participated during the week. There is also a full youth programme, running from morning ‘til late evening in 'The Tube' venue, with opportunity to meet and hear many of the bands again close-up, plus other fun activities and a café.
