About us...
HanFEST is a non-for-profit community event, held twice a year in Hanwell village near Banbury, Oxfordshire. The event is organised by a group of residents living in the village. The aim of HanFEST is to create a unique visitor experience for everyone who visits. Keeping food, farming and folk at the heart of everything we do.
HanFEST takes place in the summer and its sister Christmas event HanFESTIVE takes place late November inside St Peter's Church. We work with the Parish Council, St Peter Church and the Village Hall to create a real buzz in the village.
