Teddy Festival
2025 is a wrap!
This year, we are raising funds for the Kids’ Village, which is being built in Wychnor. This will be the UK’s first purpose-built holiday village just for sick children and their families to enjoy.

Barton Teddy Festival was set up back in the nineties as a village festival. While the centrepiece is no doubt our Teddy Bear rides (which are rides for teddies, you read that correctly), we hope we’ve created a village event that everyone can enjoy.
2025 is done and dusted, and what a fabulous year we had! We haven’t yet confirmed the date for 2026, so keep checking back here. It’s likely to be the first week of the school year owing to bank holidays.
We raised just over £6,000 for the Kids’ Village in Wychnor, presentation photos to come.
Massive thanks to all of our volunteers who make the event so special.
Every year, over a hundred volunteers give us a couple of hours of their time. We know they love it because they keep coming back! We’re opening more rides, and providing more fun activities. To do that, we need more volunteers. Can you help?
