The busiest months for festivals here are March, May, September and November, counting each month an event runs in. Months for listings without confirmed dates come from the organiser's usual timing, so treat them as a guide.

What our Oxford guide says about those seasons:

Spring (March to May)

Tuinen en weiden lopen uit. Sommige colleges zijn tijdens de tentamenweken gesloten voor bezoekers, dus controleer dit vooraf.

Autumn (September to November)

Mooi licht op de steen en het begin van het studiejaar, met rustiger straten in de avond.
