“Having run one of Europe’s leading contemporary music schools, I have seen the enormous benefits that quality music education can bring to a young person’s life” said Festival Director, Jennie Rainsford.  “I am passionate about creating this legacy and we are striving to set this up in the not too distant future.”

Children 16 and under get in free to the event.  With tickets at just £35 for 3 days of top quality live music, this is a great value event for the whole family.
