Bancroft Gardens, Stratford-Upon-Avon, Warwickshire, UK. 22nd April 2018. The winner of the UK’s first National Living Statue Championship attracted artists worldwide and thousands of visitors. Stratford-upon-Avon played host to the UK’s first National Living Statue Championship as part of the annual Shakespeare’s birthday celebrations in the Warwickshire town. A brand-new highlight of the extended three-day extravaganza, the Championship provided an opportunity for professional and junior living statues to pitch against the competition to win a cash prize. The competition ran on the 21st April and Sunday 22nd April and had two categories – professional (first prize £5000) and junior (first prize £50). Professionals needed to complete at least five 45-minute performances over the weekend, with juniors carrying out four 30-minute performances during the Championship.
