John Wogan Festing (13 August 1837 in Stourton, England – 28 December 1902) was an English clergyman who was Bishop of St Albans from 1890 to 1902.
[3] His younger brother was Major-General Edward R. Festing (1839–1912), a Royal Engineer and chemist who became the first Director of the Science Museum in London.
In 1873, he became vicar of St Luke's Church, Berwick Street, close to Seven Dials, a parish regarded at the time as demanding due to its poor neighbourhood.
His final clerical appointment was as Lord Bishop of St Albans on 24 June 1890, to which he was recommended by Dr. Henry Liddon, a fellow high churchman.
In a contemporary obituary, he was described as a ″businesslike and energetic Bishop of a very difficult diocese″, who was a "diligent student of theological science" and a ″quiet and sympathetic friend to his clergy″.
