Deva Fest teams up with zoo

EVA Fest, the north west’s award winning family friendly festival, has teamed up with Chester Zoo, the UK's leading conservation zoo, for a spectacular celebration of wildlife, wonder and hands-on fun at Cholmondeley Castle from August 7-10.

This unique partner-ship will bring a fusion of nature and imagination where festival goers can step into a world of glowing animal lanterns, poo-powered science, wild dress-up and creative crafts - all inspired by the zoo’s global efforts to protect endangered species and habitats.

Some of the zoo's famous animal lanterns (originally handcrafted for its Lanterns and Light event) will illuminate Deva Fest with magical colour and movement.

These larger-than-life interactive puppets, inspired by real creatures from around the globe, promise to dazzle kids and adults alike throughout the weekend.

Chester Zoo's energetic zoo rangers will be hosting daily “poo-parties” packed with music, movement and, yes, actual science.
