St. George Events
We are building a list of all the St. George’s Day events that will take place throughout England this year. Parades, family activities and other things to do will all be listed here. Please support these events so they become an annual celebration.
If you are organising a St. George event and would like to be listed on our website (free of charge), then complete the form ‘List your event’.
Details: The event kicks off at 12noon in the Market Place, as St George and The Mayor of Derby officially launch the celebrations. Don’t miss The Lost Boys spectacular, tongue-in-cheek reenactment of St George’s battle with the dragon. Afterwards, enjoy AVP Theatre’s enchanting puppet show retelling of the legend of St George and the Dragon as a family-friendly fairytale.
Train as a knight with hands-on workshops led by The Lost Boys and Team Falchion, learning chivalry and sword skills. Team Falchion will also showcase medieval armour and combat, and host medieval games and blanket weaving. Keep an eye out for roaming dragons throughout the afternoon! The fun will conclude with a second showing of AVP theatre’s puppet show.
Make sure you also explore St Peter’s Cross and discover Scraggy Moo’s environmentally-friendly family crafts, where you can create dragons and flags, in partnership with St Peter’s Quarter BID.
