We would like to take this opportunity to thank you all for visiting the North Devon Focus site. Traditional annual events returned in 2023 along with a host of new and diverse events in 2024. Let's all look forward to an even brighter "Event Full" 2025. The listing is free for anyone wishing to promote, local village/church events, charity or non-profit-making fund raising organisations. It is also free for local country markets, North Devon musicians, North Devon Arts and festival organisers who wish to promote gigs, events or exhibitions.

New for 2025 -we are developing a mobile friendly website. You can follow regular media releases and blogposts on our mobile friendly BLOG, view more seasonal photos of the North Devon Coast and Countryside and events throughout the year on our Instagram - FLICKR - FACEBOOK pages and YouTube channel.

This year, we asked entrants to reflect on the community spirit and unique atmosphere of North Devon's celebrations, including events such as Barnstaple Fair and of course, the return of Barnstaple Carnival. The photographs submitted are exhibited alongside historical photographs by James Ravilious.

During the exhibition, you're invited to cast your vote to select the winning entry of the Documentary Photography Open 2025. The winner will be announced at the end of the exhibition.
