Designed to celebrate the tremendously successful trilogy, the festival will give visitors a chance to partake in an in-depth exploration into Tolkiens amazing world. The New Line deal follows a previous agreement between Access All Areas Ltd and The Tolkien Society, who have also pledged their support for The Fellowship Festival. With both New Line and The Tolkien Society working closely with us, we can ensure that The Fellowship Festival provides an unrivalled experience, comments Louise Henry. Wed like to give fans the opportunity to recreate the experience of how these movies were actually made and the chance to meet first hand those who made it possible. Fans of the books and the films, plus those that helped to make the movies, will together immerse themselves in the rich level of detail behind Tolkiens work, thereby offering everyone an unforgettable bank holiday experience.
Showcasing the magnificent works of Professor J.R.R Tolkien and Peter Jackson, The Fellowship Festival is expected to see 4,000-5,000 fans per day. Attendees will be treated to theatrical presentations hosted by two of the actors from the films, Craig Parker (Haldir) and Mark Ferguson (Gil-Galad).
