The Festival of Suffolk is our county’s unique contribution to the national Jubilee celebrations as Britain and Commonwealth mark the historic Queen’s Platinum Jubilee, her 70-year reign as Monarch and her impact on the world. This is a truly inclusive Festival: it is for everybody. The Festival of Suffolk will bring all our communities and generations together, connecting networks, people and organisations to deliver the biggest ever community event in Suffolk.

This Festival is not one event, but a whole series of events that take place across the summer of 2022, countywide. These include a community torch relay, Business Expo, Community Games, a Pageant at the Suffolk Show, arts and culture activities, faith events, the Festival of the Sea, and Let’s Rock, a day-long festival style concert in Trinity Park. Our own Raceday is the first of these Festival events.
