Completely unique, with over one hundred thousand participants,
hundreds of millions of pounds of scenery and landscape, extraordinary
logistical resources
and deep improvisational skills, Exeter Everyday will be the
biggest celebration in the city's history and perhaps will become a model
for similar festivals
throughout the world.
Most festivals emphasise the unusual and
the extraordinary. Very rarely is there an opportunity to acknowledge
the everyday. Exeter Everyday is filling that gap with
a week of day-long festivals celebrating different aspects of everyday
life in Exeter. Anyone in the city can take part. It is not necessary to
do anything special. Simply to take notice of the everyday, guided by or
ignoring the theme of the day.
Every day the people here make and re-make their city, by
the ways in which they use the city, travel across it, mark it, mend it, walk
over it, write on it, work on and in and under it. This is a chance for us
all to enjoy the unexceptional power we each wield every day.
