FESTIVAL RULES
1. The object of the Festival is to raise the standard of amateur music making and acting by giving practitioners the opportunity to perform in public and under concert conditions. They benefit from professional feedback on their work and from the opportunity to hear their fellow performers. An amateur is someone who does not derive his/her living from the music profession.
2. The Festival is a charity and we book our venues based on the number of people who have registered to perform, so entry fees cannot be returned.
