- **Event Description**: Wyrd Wyrale: art, myth, music and ritual collide at Bidston Observatory in a celebration of Wirral’s hidden stories.About this EventThe FestivalThe Wirral has always been a place in between. Between rivers and sea. Between England and elsewhere. Fought over, passed through, settled and unsettled. A peninsula blasted with salt air and stories — some remembered, many forgotten. Wyrd, eerie, and quietly charged.Wyrd Wyrale is a one-day cultural festival rooted in Wirral’s liminal identity, celebrating the wyrd, the overlooked, and the half-told histories of this hidden corner of England.Taking place at Bidston Observatory, high on Bidston Hill and overlooking the Rivers Mersey and Dee, the festival brings together live music, performance, talks, storytelling, and unexpected encounters across the site. Once a place of watching and measuring the world, the Observatory becomes a gathering point for sound, story, and the unseen.Across the day, performances will unfold from local artists including Common Folk, Flowershow, Grace Elizabeth Harvey, The Del Roswells, Wooden Tape, OORYA, and more still to be announced. Music, performance, conversation, and ritual move through the building and grounds, inviting audiences to wander, listen, and linger in the wyrd.Below ground, Arcane Offering's opens up: a subterranean artists’ market hidden in the lower levels of the Observatory. Here, local creatives offer objects, printed matter, charms, and creations pulled from the wyrd: things made to be handled, traded, and treasured.Wyrd Wyrale takes place within and around the Observatory building, home to the Bidston Observatory Artistic Research Centre (BOARC) — a self-organised, not-for-profit space dedicated to experimentation, communality, and unfixed ideas. For one day, Bidston Hill becomes a site of gathering: a celebration of Wirral’s wyrd culture, its in-between nature, and the stories that still cling to the land.Bidston ObservatorySituated high above the river's Mersey and Dee with sweeping views across the Wirral peninsula, Bidston Observatory has long been a site of scientific inquiry, experimental practice and alternative thinking. Its unique position, both geographically and culturally, makes it an ideal setting for a film that explores visionary connections between land, history and imagination.Wyrd Wyrale is hosted within this historic builidng and supported by Bidston Observatory Artistic Research Centre (BOARC), a self-organising study site dedicated to research, communality and creative experimentation. Operating as a not-for-profit organisation, BOARC offers low-cost workspace and residency opportunities for individuals and groups to develop their practices without pressure, expectation or hierarchy. Stays range from day use to month-long visits, with no formal application process and no requirement to produce or present work. All forms of practice are welcomed and valued.Located within the historic Observatory building and surrounded by woodland, BOARC brings together a broad spectrum of disciplines, from art, music and theatre to philosophy, activism, environmental research, science and technology. It is a space where conversations move easily from kitchen to studio, and where ideas can travel from the domes to the basement workrooms. Inspired by the Performing Arts Forum in France, BOARC continues to explore new models of shared space, community and creative infrastructure. The project is stewarded collaboratively by a small team who work collectively to guide and sustain the centre.AccessibilityBidston Observatory is a historic building and, as such, does present some accessibility challenges. The site includes multiple staircases and there is no lift, which may make access difficult for some visitors. We are committed to making the event as accessible as possible and encourage anyone with access requirements to get in touch with us in advance so we can discuss how best to support your visit.AccomodationAccommodation for overnight stay at The Obervatory is available from July 30th - August 3rd. There is a mix of single, double and dormitory rooms available and prices start from £40 per night. If you would like to know more or to make a booking please contact the BOARC team at enquiries@bidstonobservatory.org
