Children Entertainment

We’re delighted to announce that the Children’s Entertainment Schedule for the 2026 Sturminster Newton Cheese Festival is now available.

Packed with family-friendly fun across the weekend, our Children’s Entertainment Area will offer a fantastic range of activities designed to keep younger festival-goers entertained while parents and grandparents enjoy everything else the festival has to offer.

From live performances and interactive entertainment to funfair rides and hands-on activities, there will be plenty to see and do throughout both days of the festival. Whether your little ones enjoy music, laughter, games, or simply exploring new experiences, there is something for every age to enjoy.

The Children’s Entertainment Area forms a key part of the festival and helps make the Cheese Festival a great day out for the whole family. Many of the activities are included within the festival admission price, offering excellent value and ensuring everyone can make the most of their visit.

We encourage visitors to check the schedule before attending and plan their day around the performances and activities they don’t want to miss.

The full Children’s Entertainment Schedule can now be viewed on our website.

We look forward to welcoming families from across Dorset and beyond for another fantastic weekend of food, fun, music, and entertainment at the 2026 Sturminster Newton Cheese Festival.
