A FULL printed programme outlining the acts performing at a major international festival is now available.

The Stockton International Riverside Festival 2016 brings to the region four days of street theatre, circus, dance and music from all over the globe.

Stockton Borough Council, which organises the event, has produced a free, pocket-sized guide including the full programme of festival performances, which will take place in Preston Park, Eaglescliffe, and in Stockton Town Centre, from Thursday, August 4 to Sunday, August 7.

The council’s cabinet member for arts, leisure and culture, Councillor Norma Wilburn, said: “SIRF16 will present an amazing variety of performances to enjoy across four days and our new programme is the perfect guide to help you plan your festival weekend.

“The convenient booklet contains a map, full details and timings of each show as well as useful visitor information about parking, transport and food offers."

Programmes are available from businesses, cafés and libraries across the Borough as well as SIRF Central in the Rediscover shop on Stockton High Street.

The full programme is also available to view or download at www.sirf.co.uk
