With two of our stilters awaiting new arrivals this summer, festival season is looking a little different! Instead we have been reminiscing on last years @glastofest with this epic video @johnthegrey made for us 🪩
We will be eagerly watching Worthy Farm from the comfort of our sofas and hopefully all out together dancing in fields again in no time ❤️

Happy 100th Birthday to our hero Sir David Attenborough 🥳🥂 You are the reason we’ve been able to dance around as giant birds of paradise all these years and thank-you for continuing to inspire us and the world. Wishing you the happiest of birthdays, don’t peak too early! Full Stilt xx @davidattenborough #davidattenborough #happy100birthday #100today #tripledigits @bbcarts
Manchester Christmas Parade ❄️🙌🏼 the 4th year of our fave festive event, this time we had the opportunity to make some new Full Stilt costumes. Bringing clouds to a parade might have brought the rain but it definitely didn't dampen the vibes from the amazing crowds. So much fun as always!
Supported by our amazing friends @global_grooves We can't wait to get them lit up and out to more gigs.
Lovely night pitching at Mossley Soup!
So nice to get out into our local community, chat about what we do and find out what other amazing projects are going on in our town. Hopefully we will see some of those faces again when we get our stilt workshops up and running, watch this space 👀
Congratulations to the Cricket club who won 🎉 and thanks everyone that gave us their vote 💕
Day dreaming about warmer weather, is winter nearly over yet?! 🤪 Our Flame Bowerbird looking majestic on the sunny streets of Ripon last year at @ripon_theatre_fest
Throwback to the folks of Oldham busting some shapes at our Moth Ball. Bubbles, lights and the famous Danny the Dancer. We knew you couldn't resist, like moths to a disco ball 🪩🕺🏼
Great little reel from Sunday evening. So nice to see it all together 😍
Posted @withregram • @northernrootsoldham What a magical night at 'By the Light of the Moon' at Northern Roots!✨
Did you come to the event? We’d love to hear what you thought in the comments, and we’d love to see your photos and videos.
'By the Light of the Moon' was a creative collaboration involving @eyeofnewttheatrearts , @full.stilt , @leeway_creative , @circus_antics , @handmadeproductionscic , @petepinningtonproductions , @dccoffee , BAME Connect community group, volunteers, our team of Northern Roots staff and Community Champions, and our partners @loveoldham and @galleryoldham .
It was made possible by funding from #UKSPF.

We did it!
Yesterday we delivered By the Light of the Moon with @northernrootsoldham and @eyeofnewttheatrearts so many of you brought your moths, flew through the field of stars, chatted to the moon, pollinated flowers and disco danced the night away at the moth ball.
Special thanks to @leeway_creative for providing their beautiful lighting and light tunnel. @handmadeproductionscic for providing extra site decor. And all of our outdoor arts family that helped us with endless favours. So many familiar faces came to say hi and it really meant a lot ❤️
Of course we barely got any pictures but here are a couple of our new moth costumes. Looking forward to seeing more images of the night as they trickle in 🌝🦋
Just a few weeks left until our light trail at @northernrootsoldham with our friends @eyeofnewttheatrearts
Lots of opportunities to get involved with helping on the site or making your own moth to bring to the event. We can't wait to see you there
We're working hard making some exciting new costumes for our upcoming light trail at @northernrootsoldham . Working in collaboration with our friends @eyeofnewttheatrearts we're creating a magical illuminated experience celebrating the world of night pollinators.
This time round the costumes have been designed by our own @lizardriggers we cant wait to share the final lewk 😍
