I have started a new map of canal festivals and events, it is a work in progress so far I have 22 in the database, each event has a location and is timed to disappear from the map once the event is over.

 

As yet I have not included events that are Cruising between locations, I am still working on how to represent these on the map.

 

So what I am looking for is any events you think I should include, they can be annual or one off’s. It would be great if they have a supporting web page or group.

 

See https://floydtilla.co.uk/uk-canal-festivals-map/

 

Thanks

Fairport's Cropredy Convention, Cropredy, South Oxford canal.

 

New Forest Folk Festival.  Romsey.

Thanks, added Fairport, but not sure about New Forest event, seems a little bit away from the canals and Rivers 🙂

Are you going to make any of this data available as a download  so other people / applications can use it?

Not my current plan, it is still a work in progress, and is being updated all the time. 
 

I have been asked a few times now, most seem to want to put it in an app to sell, at the moment it is free to use.
