Kaleidoscope Festival

For one glorious day we throw open the Palace gates, its rolling hills and pleasure gardens to a vibrant and eccentric cast of performers. Explore with us a world where music, performance, theatre and comedy embrace in a collision of beautiful noise, brilliant ideas and brazen colour. 

Wander through curious happenings in hidden corners, become the story in never seen places, dance to sounds in re-imagined spaces.
