EXPLORING SUSTAINABILITY

Join us for a FREE FAMILY FUN DAY at the Festival of Ingenuity in Darlington!

The Town Centre will once again explode with fun, activity and all that is ingenious about the area. You and your family will have the opportunity to try a wide range of interactive activities such as build a foot bridge, control a mini submarine, try tech used in the day-to-day life of police officers, have a go at flying a drone and much more fun! Market Square

You'll also get the chance to meet many indigenous companies such as Cummins, EE, Nifco, Modus, Cleveland Bridge, as well as RTC North, Durham Constabulary, County Durham & Darlington Fire & Rescue Service and many more! They will be bringing some of their most exciting equipment for you to try out! Exhibitors

The party continues in Riverside Park where our Festival partner, Darlington Building Society, will be hosting a wide range of exciting activities for the whole family! Riverside Park is also the place to enjoy live music, delicious food and refreshing drinks from our local providers such as Spead From The Med, Tapas Bar, The Pennyweight and Hole in the Wall. Our local music collective, Tracks, will once again present a bill of innovative artists ready to soundtrack a summer afternoon by the riverside. Riverside Park
