Festival membership

The festival is 'free'

The first festival took place in 2022 and was a one-day festival. The festival took place in Hexham bandstand, was free, and was attended by a few hundred people. Everybody loved it so we decided to make it bigger and better in 2023. It's still free, but we will pass a donations bucket round again. Please donate on the day and also via the button paypal.me below to secure the future of this wonderful event in Hexham !

Festival supporters

The following businesses have supported the festival financially and would appreciate your custom - to add
Core Music, Hexham. Everyone should also visit the fabulous Core Music down Gilesgate whilst in Hexham. Core Music is a Community Interest Company and relies on 'profits' from the shop, room hire from tutors and other groups, donations, goodwill and the dedication of a small number of staff and volunteers. Core Music contributes and supports a whole host of music activities in and around Hexham. Without Core Music, this festival would not be happening.
