Share this story!

Norfolk Libraries are thrilled to announce DigiFest 2026, returning this February with a month-long celebration of digital creativity for children and young people. Free, hands-on workshops across all Norfolk libraries will give young people up to 16 years old the chance to explore coding, 3D pens, robotics, and much more, helping to boost digital skills and inspire the next generation of creators.

A bright green promotional banner for “DigiFest” with the word “DigiFest” in large white and pink lettering across the centre. Below it is the website “www.norfolk.gov.uk/digifest”
and the hashtag “#DigiFestNfkLibs”. Circular images on the left show children using small educational robots, while on the right a laptop displays a coding or design programme.

DigiFest is part of Norfolk County Council’s digital inclusion initiative, aiming to make technology accessible, fun, and engaging for all. Whether your child is curious about programming robots, creating digital art, or designing stop-motion animations, there’s an activity for every interest and skill level.

What’s on offer? Astro Pi: Mission Zero, Glow and Go: A Bounce & Rhyme Specials, Code Club Taster, LEGO Spike and more!
