We are pleased to announce that Exeter Phoenix’s Green Phoenix Festival will return on 6th July 2025, following a successful first event in 2024. The day looks towards a sustainable future using collective creativity to empower action.

Delivered in partnership with a variety of sustainability-focused local groups, organisations and individuals, this festival will be an opportunity to highlight how we can all play a part in creating a greener future whilst connecting with the excellent work taking place locally to mitigate the climate crisis.

Over the course of the day we will be offering a diverse programme of presentations, panel discussions, workshops and creative activities completely free of charge to the local community. Some of this activity includes:

MUSIC | FAMILY ACTIVITIES | ART | FILM SCREENINGS | LEARNING | STALLS | PERFORMANCE | POETRY

…and much more!

Festival Trails

To guide you through our packed festival programme, we have created three trails that you can follow along based on what interests you.

Whether you’re looking for a family day out, to be immersed in Exeter’s green arts scene or to learn more about key sustainability issues, there is something for everyone regardless of age or experience in climate action.

Interactive: Ideal for families, this trail is full of crafts, activities and demonstrations for all ages to get involved in whilst learning about how we can care for the natural world around us.

Arts and Culture: This trail is focused on creatively expressing green concerns through different forms of performance, music and art to highlight the urgency of climate crisis.

Learning: This trail is dedicated to knowledge-sharing to empower tangible steps we can take to make Exeter and the wider world more sustainable, illustrated through a series of talks and screenings.
