The festival is a charity and books venues based on the number of people who register. I understand that this means my entry fee will not be refunded if I cannot attend for any reason.
Please ensure you can attend on the date published on the timetable. The festival is now subject to Child Performance Licensing laws which mean that changes to your performance day or time cannot be accommodated. I confirm that I can attend on the day advertised.
Copies of all performance material MUST be provided for the adjudicator. Photocopies are acceptable, providing they are destroyed immediately after the performance.

The object of the Festival is to raise the standard of amateur music making 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.
The Festival is open to residents of Norfolk and to such others as may be admitted by the Festival Committee.
No one may discuss any aspect of the Festival with an Adjudicator except at the invitation of the Adjudicator.
The Festival reserves the right to refuse entry without assigning any reason.
Entrants will perform only once in each class except for class PN33 (teacher and pupil) and in the woodwind classes, if performing on different instruments.
Whilst every effort will be made to adhere to the advertised programme the Festival reserves the right to make modifications.
Pieces will be heard in full if played within the stated time limit.
Normally, participants will not be allowed to perform at any time other than that programmed for their class.
The winner of the previous year’s Gwendoline Lee Memorial Prize is ineligible to enter this year.
