The “vibrant, family-friendly celebration” - organised by The Point and Berry Theatre - takes place on Saturday 7 June at Eastleigh’s Leigh Road Recreation Ground and on Sunday 8 June at Hedge End’s Greta Park, both from 10am to 5pm.

Festivalgoers can enjoy a wide range of free performances and activities, from craft workshops and bubble discos to juggling sessions and theatrical walkabouts.

Highlights include The Town Band of Bremen by The Fabularium, The Dragon Wagon by Jellyfish Theatre, and Walk of the Dandelion from Luke Brown Company – featuring Daniel, an 8ft ethereal puppet who gently roams the event, sharing moments of joy and quiet reflection.

"Unwrapped Festival is a celebration of community and creativity," said Charlotte Hall, Artistic Director at The Point Eastleigh. "It's wonderful to see people of all ages come together to enjoy the arts in the borough’s beautiful outdoor spaces.”
