About

Residents, families, schools and community groups are invited to take part in an exciting and creative project this summer to transform Tamworth Castle into a breath-taking 'Flower Castle.'

As part of the Tamworth Flower Festival, taking place from 23 to 26 July, the exterior of Tamworth Castle will be decorated with hundreds of handmade fabric, knitted and crocheted flowers, all created by the local community.

Friday 29 May, 10:30am–2:00pm – Sarah Baxter
