If you are new to the Festival or coming to us again to practice your skills, this page has useful information for you and your supporters.
This Festival is operated by a charity and is organised and run by a group of unpaid volunteers to provide a platform for those learning or honing their artistic skills to practice in front of a live audience and a skilled, Federation* approved, adjudicator who will provide valuable feedback and encouragement verbally and/or written.
The volunteers do this because they, or their children, benefited from this Festival in earlier years. They do their best to make it a smooth and enjoyable experience. If you fancy joining the team please contact Paul Dutton or any other committee member listed on the contacts page.
Below you will find additional information that we hope will make your visit as enjoyable as it should be.
In February we will provide an overview of the schedule for the three weekends.
