24th-27th July The We Believe Festival, in the grounds of Oscott

...........................................Seminary (outside Birmingham). It’s the second year

                                        the festival has taking place, after a successful launch

                                        last year, which saw thousands of Catholics from all

                                        over the country, including many young families,

                                        camping and enjoying three days of talks,

                                        entertainment and liturgy from across the Catholic

                                        spectrum. You can arrange your own accommodation

                                        locally if you feel your camping days are behind you, or

                                        get a day ticket, but camp if you can. People who

                                        attended last year were bowled over by the great

                                        atmosphere and the encouragement of being immersed

                                        in a Catholic and family-friendly festival for a weekend.
