We are an annual Festival to encourage the study, performance and appreciation of music and speech by affording amateur performers the opportunity of having their performances assessed by highly qualified Adjudicators, and above all, to enjoy performing.
Classes for School-Age
We aim for a fun inclusive Festival, celebrating the developing performance skills in both Music and Speech, in both classes for individuals and groups.
Classes for All Ages
Whether you are young, or young at heart, we have a class for you to take part in and perform. We have a range of competitive and non-competitive classes… and if you can’t find what you are looking for, we will always be willing to listen and add one in!
Founded in 1948, we offer the chance to perform in a supportive environment..
