SPARK Family Festival

SPARK returns to the Villa Marina on Saturday 5th July with a bigger and more varied programme of family-friendly performances and activities. SPARK 2025 will once again transform the Villa Marina into a hub of creativity and imagination, and this time with a new theme celebrating nature.

SPARK has grown significantly since its launch, with more events being curated and delivered by local creatives and performers. This year the programme also extends into the Villa Marina Gardens with the Island-based Active Souls who pioneer playful activities and engage children with playground games that encourage wellbeing.

With a programme of events taking place throughout the day, SPARK’s headline performance in the Villa Marina’s Royal Hall will be the Olivier Award-winning company Little Bulb Theatre with their touring production of Four Seasons. Created for children aged 3-7 the show explores the changing seasons with puppetry, music and audience participation, and will visit SPARK as part of a worldwide tour.

Along with the following programme of events, new for this year is delicious treats from the Manx Whippy Van and Food Monkey Food Van, making the festival experience even more fun.
