Stratford Shakespeare festival

Sunday 27 April - Saturday 17 May 2025

Our annual Shakespeare on the River Festival runs each April/May in Stratford, Australia. The festival has created an enduring Arts legacy for Stratford that showcases community, professional theatre and the broader Arts scene.

For 30 years Stratford has hosted The Shakespeare on the River Festival, centered around the works and life of William Shakespeare. In 2025 there will be more than 20 events across two weeks. Come see the Community Players take on ‘Othello’, revel at The Bard’s Banquet and then on Sunday May [the] Fourth join in the fun of The Medieval Market Faire Day on the Village Green to close off another festival. With a grand variety of traditional arts and crafts, food and beverages, fresh produce, together with live music, workshops and displays, there is something for everyone.
