Kenilworth Fringe will feature a range of events for a week in February

A week-long arts and culture festival is set to be held in a Warwickshire town.

Kenilworth Fringe will feature a range of activities involving books, music and politics, at venues across the town from 2 to 8 February.

Festival organisers said many events would be free of charge, with two "full days" of activities held on 7 and 8 February.

From craft workshops and writer Q&A's to aerial hoops classes and band performances, organisers said the festival would be "suitable for all ages".

Writers, musicians and artists will all feature in the events, including concert pianist Julian Hellaby and artist Jacqui Smithson.

Activities are in three categories, Words and Ideas, Experience, and Make and Do, to encourage people to join in as well as enjoying a range of music, theatre and art.
