As part of the Malvern Well Dressing & Water Festival, a family fun day is hosted every year in Priory Park to bring together the local community and our visitors to celebrate Malvern spring water. The event runs from 10am-5pm in the beautiful location of Priory Park in Great Malvern. This year we have pulled out all the stops to bring you amazing entertainment, yummy food stalls, creative workshops, live music from the bandstand and more.
The event includes a celebration of Malvern Spring Water and the history of the Victorian Malvern Water Cure with a Water Cure dance by DanceFest leading onto the Water Cure re-enactment and Well Dressing prize Diving Ceremony.
We would like to thank everyone from the local community who has helped lovingly dress the wells, springs and spouts around the Malvern Hills and around our town centres in Great Malvern, Barnards Green and Malvern, Link. We know how much work and dedication goes into celebrating this annual tradition and we can’t wait to see your displays in this year’s theme.
