Coventry Peace Festival 2015

The annual Coventry Peace Festival takes place in November to help the city celebrate Coventry's unique role as a City of Peace, Reconciliation and Equality and includes the 75th anniversary of the Coventry Blitz and the inaugural RISING 2015 Global Peace Forum.

The two week festival is a chance to promote peace and understanding between the many faiths, cultures and communities that flourish within Coventry. Most of the events take place from 1 - 14 November, with other events happening through the remainder of the month and some pre-festival events happening this week.

There are a wide variety of events during the festival that vary from film screenings, talks, craft workshops, poetry, exhibitions, debates and, of course, the Remembrance Sunday Service and Parade at the War Memorial Park on Sunday 8 November where you can join hundreds of people as they commemorate the lives of the fallen of the world wars and other conflicts.
