We love Sundays at Festival Church Chester!
We would love to have you join us for our service at 10.30am.
We have a Kids program that runs for Primary School aged children at our 10.30am Gathered Church Service. The children remain with their families for worship and then during the preach go out to our Kids program.
Parking options available are the Park and Ride (there are 4 around Chester), on-street parking on City Road, or the nearby NCP car park.

Festival Church first began life as Chester Pentecostal Church. It all started when Clifford and Eunice Beasley held a church service in their living room in Kings Crescent East, Great Boughton, on Sunday 18th January 1976.
Three months later, the Penri Welsh Chapel in Gorse Stacks agreed to allow the new fellowship to use their premises on Sunday afternoons – this continued for a period of 9 months.
In January 1977, the church rented accommodation alongside the Fountains Roundabout and remained there until 1986 when it moved to its present premises in Queen Street (formerly a Welsh Methodist Chapel) and became known as the Queen Street Christian Centre.
In 2015, we marked the next chapter of our story by changing our name to Festival Church.
Tim & Emily came to Festival Church in September 2014, after previously leading North Coast Church in Towyn.
Married for 23 years, with four children, they love living in Chester! In his spare time Tim enjoys music and mountaineering. Emily enjoys open-water swimming and writing books.
