Strawberry Fair Cambridge

Cambridge’s FREE one day music & arts event
Starting the summer season in Cambridge in 1974
From humble beginnings, Strawberry Fair has grown to be the most popular free, entirely volunteer run, one day music & arts event in Cambridge (and probably across Europe!), attracting over 30,000 visitors throughout the day. Held on the first Saturday of June, residents and visitors gather together on Midsummer Common to celebrate their vibrant and creative city.
What puts the Fair at the heart of Cambridge?
The Fair is a labour of love and is run entirely by volunteers (affectionately known as Strawberry Fairies) who channel their energy, imagination, and vision into presenting their friends and neighbours in Cambridge with a great, free day out.
We’re all about taking pride in our community and put the local at the heart of the Fair as much as possible. We are not-for-profit and non-political, independent and self-funding. Strawberry Fair is run by the community for the community.
We love to see new faces among the Strawberry Fairies and need volunteers throughout the year to make the day of the Fair a success: Find out how you can get involved.
