AFTER a three-year break the Tetbury Fiesta is back for 2018 with plans already underway to deliver the most spectacular event yet.
Taking place on Saturday July 14 running from 12pm to 11pm, the fiesta will provide a platform for local musicians to showcase their talents.
After an exhaustive audition process, 10 acts from Tetbury and nearby areas have been selected to perform on the main stage.
Place Nation, The Layers, Bones Like That, The Dirty Smooth, Audio Assylum, Heather Bristow. Chloe Wood, DJ Moggy, Drogo and RockaRola complete the line-up.
Tetbury Fiesta committee chairman, Mark Trolly Wood said: “We are very excited to have Fiesta back for 2018 and our new venue will allow us to stage a much larger event than previous years.
“Tetbury is a vibrant town that has grown rapidly in recent years thanks to numerous new housing developments.
“These have brought many new residents to the area.
“Against this backdrop, events like Fiesta become even more important because they provide the perfect opportunity for the community to get together, make new friends and enjoy a fantastic day of music and entertainment.”
The festival will take place at Sir William Romney School with all money raised donated to local charities including Tetbury Hospital, St. Mary’s School, Sir William Romney’s School, the Youth Pod and other Tetbury clubs.
As well as music, there will also be food and produce stalls, sideshows and children’s entertainment and, of course, a beer tent.
Tickets for Tetbury Fiesta 2018 cost £15 per person and will go on sale at the beginning of March.
An Early Bird discount is available until the end of April, reducing the price to £10 per person.
Tickets for children between the ages of seven and 16 are £8 while children under seven will be admitted free of charge.
All tickets are available from Tetbury Harware, London Road, Tetbury.
The Tetbury Fiesta committee want to hear from any local companies who would like to sponsor this event.
