# Weekends in Somerset

A festival is one of the best reasons to spend a weekend in Somerset — you get the event and the place in one trip, whether that's Georgian Bath, a cathedral city or a corner of Exmoor. Here are some of the county's best festival weekends.

A weekend in Bath

Bath is an effortless festival weekend. Time it with the Mozartfest, Bachfest or the Jane Austen Festival and you'll pair world-class culture with one of Britain's most beautiful cities.

A weekend in Frome

The creative Mendip town of Frome is at its best during the Frome Festival — ten days of music, art and performance across independent venues, with plenty of free events to drop into.

A weekend in Wells

England's smallest city punches above its weight. The Wells Comedy Festival and the free Wells Food Festival both make a brilliant weekend around the cathedral and its medieval streets.

A weekend on Exmoor and the coast

Head west for the Dulverton Exmoor Literary Festival or the Minehead & Exmoor Music Festival, combining a festival with some of the county's finest walking country.
