This summer marks a very special moment for all of us who have been involved in the crop circle phenomenon. It is the 25th anniversary of two remarkable crop circles: the Galaxy and the Face & the Message. Both events made headlines and captured the imagination of researchers, photographers, croppies, and curious visitors from around the world. For many, they remain among the most iconic and inspiring crop circles ever discovered.

To mark this occasion we organise The Circles Festival, a gathering of researchers, enthusiasts, friends, and newcomers who share a fascination with the phenomenon and the questions it raises.

There will be talks, films, a festival fair, workshops, tours, night watching under the stars, and time to meet both old friends and new ones. Most of all, it will be an opportunity to celebrate the extraordinary phenomenon that has brought so many of us together over the years.

More details about the programme and dates will follow. For now, please mark the occasion in your diary.
