Rugby Food and Faith Festival 17th October 2026

Last year, Warwickshire Police held its first Rugby Food & Faith Festival, a completely free event with a great turnout from both faith communities and the wider neighbourhoods. 

We had traditional food stalls from the Muslim community, Sikh community, Christian communities, Hindu Community and Ukraine Community, for members of the public to sample and enjoy as well as learning about the varied faiths of the town. It was a great opportunity to talk to members of different faiths and cultures, learn from each other and gain a better understanding of our diverse community.

Different faiths and cultures came together with local residents to help celebrate the Borough's wonderful richly diverse community, and I am happy to announce that we will be holding a Food & Faith Festival in October this year. 

This year's event, to be held on Saturday 17th October 2026, will be kindly hosted by the Rugby United Reformed Church, 40 Hillmorton Road Rugby CV22 5AD.The Festival will be held between 1:30pm and 3:30pm on the Saturday.

The Safer Neighbourhood Team, Kind Communities Kind Food and other partner agencies will also be there.

The event will be free to attend but booking is essential.
