The Avenue

Flanked on either side by food vans and walkabout entertainers, the bustle of a walk down the Avenue is something we get excited about all year long. The sights, the sounds, the smells, bumping into old friends and making new ones – we defy you to find a friendlier place. Along the Avenue, we have a huge host of attractions to entertain you – many that BCF regulars will recognise and many others new every year! The Big Church bookshop and the EXPO filled to the brim with stalls containing resources, gifts, and info from interesting charities and organisations. Music and artist interviews can be enjoyed from one end at the engaging UCB stage, and the other, the unmistakable sound of sub bass and spiralling synthesisers welcoming you to the Illuminate Stage.
