ValeFest, previously known as The Vale Festival, is a charitable summer music and arts festival that takes place on the Vale, a park and student accommodation site at the University of Birmingham, in Birmingham, England now[when?] going into its 19th year.
It is planned, organised and largely staffed by volunteer students - it is believed to be the largest solely student-organised event in the UK and is the largest student-run charity festival in Europe.[1] Every year it is held on the Saturday after summer examinations finish and all proceeds go towards charities selected earlier in the academic year. So far[when?] it has raised over £200,000.[1] The capacity of the 2019 event was 5,000.[2]
The committee is a student group associated with University of Birmingham Guild of Students, the university's students' union.
The beginning of each year sees the nomination and selection of charities that each year would raise money for, from social justice matters and adolescent mental health, to general poverty causes. There are several stages at the festival on the day, as well as comedy and performance tents, society events and workshops, and an after-party.
