SUMMARY:BFG Family Trail
DESCRIPTION:While The BFG is on stage at Chichester Festival Theatre\, the story spills out into the city from 28 March – 11 April with Chichester BID’s phizz-whizzing BFG Family Trail.\n\nChiddlers are invited to explore the city of Chichester in search of colourful dream jars hiding in eight windows. Each dream jar features a wonderfully splendiferous word – with a letter highlighted.

Closing date: 11 April 2026 at 5pm. T&Cs Apply.\n\nWhat’s up for grabs\nOne lucky winner will receive a £50 CFT voucher and a bag of goodies. Plus five runners-up will win a Roald Dahl book\, courtesy of Children’s BookFest.\nCelebrating stories together\n \n\nThe BFG Family Trail forms part of Chichester’s Year of Reading: Go All In campaign\, spearheaded by Children’s BookFest with Chichester Festival Theatre and Chichester BID. \nBest of luck! \nTerms and Conditions: Competition closes 11 April at 5pm; one entry per person; the winner will be randomly chosen using an online generator; winner will be notified by email or phone (if given) by 17 April; prize is non-transferable and there is no cash alternative.

SUMMARY:Poetry & Spoken Word Open-Mic at The Ghost at the Feast
DESCRIPTION:Come along and read some of your own poetry or prose\, listen to others and share in the joys of the spoken word.\n\n\nArrive from 6pm to order drinks and snacks. Open-Mic starts at 6:30pm. \nJoin us for our regular in-person Open-Mic event upstairs at The Ghost at the Feast in Chichester\, West Sussex. We meet on the 1st Tuesday of every month.
