St George’s Day, Coventry
Apr 23, 2026 - Apr 25, 2026

Giant dragons, Morris dancers, music and a vibrant mix of folk and creative activities will bring Broadgate to life to celebrate St George’s Day, as Coventry City Council hosts two free events.

The fun-filled, drop-in event on Thursday 23 April will run from 11am – 3pm and is open to all, with Morris dancers and giant walkabout dragons adding to the atmosphere.

Celebrations will continue on Saturday 25 April with a second free event, where families with children of all ages can enjoy a fantastic day of music, hands-on arts and crafts, and giant dragon characters roaming through Broadgate.

Saturday’s event will also see the ‘Heroes Tree’ – an interactive chalk mural created by local Coventry artist, Katie O, which will allow those in attendance to share the names and stories of their own heroes.

From Thursday 23 April – Saturday 25 April our free city centre Dragon Trail will also return. Youngsters can hunt for St George’s lost dragons around the city centre, and those who find them all will be able to claim a prize.
