In November 2020 we will turn 100 years old. We launched our celebrations with a ‘Countdown to 100 years’ concert in November 2019 (final line-up pictured below). It was a fantastic night, with some exceptional performances.

Our plans for 2020 were very much disrupted by COVID-19, so we will be celebrating the 100th festival in 2024 instead. (There were 4 years during the second world war when the Festival didn’t take place.) Watch this space.
