Join in the fun at Summer River Festival Coventry 2026, a free celebration of the River Sherbourne over the weekend of 6th - 7th June. There will be a packed programme of live music, theatrical performances, storytelling, river walks, and hands-on arts and crafts.

The latest Sherbourne Valley Project update reflects on the progress made across the valley, from habitat restoration and improved access to the growing involvement of volunteers and communities. The update recording showcases key sites, shared achievements and the collective effort shaping the future of the River Sherbourne.

A summary of our project update and volunteer awards, which featured a festive quiz and plenty of good food. This warm and lively night recognised the dedication of everyone involved in supporting the work of the project.

We're offering two paid, full-time traineeships through the Sherbourne Valley Project, giving individuals hands-on experience, a recognised qualification, and the chance to work on practical environmental and heritage projects across Coventry.

River Festival Coventry is a weekend of creativity, community and connection to nature, suitable for all ages and interests.
