Since 2014 The Big Feast has been bringing families, residents, strangers and communities from across the city of Stoke-on-Trent together to share astonishing arts experiences outdoors on the streets and in the green spaces of our City Centre (Hanley) and beyond.
The Big Feast is created in collaboration with The Appetite Supper Club. Supper Club are a group of local residents passionate about changing the city of Stoke-on-Trent through culture and getting local people involved in the arts who wouldn’t usually get to access them.
From marching bands getting people dancing in Stafford Street; flying astronauts down Tontine Square; heart warming stilt performances outside Hanley Market and giant floating moons in Kings Hall, The Big Feast has brought inspiring art from all over the world to right here on our doorstep. In 2019 over 15,000 local people enjoyed performances they may never have experienced otherwise and all for free.
The Big Feast is a truly special event for us and for our city.
It makes us feel proud of the town. It’s part of our city now” Medhi, Supper Club
You feel part of a vibe and are part of the energy…people have an experience they wouldn’t have otherwise.’ Rob, Supper Club
You see the city in a whole new light’ Deb , Supper Club
Although we can’t make The Big Feast happen in 2020 it will be BACK and we’re looking forward to a time when we can create that community magic again. But in order to do this and in order to support the festival in many more years to come Supper Club and Appetite need YOUR support.
