Festival has various partnership opportunities available that can be tailored to meet different budgets.

‍

Bewdley Festival is a volunteer run organisation and a registered charity. Any surplus funds are either re-invested in bringing arts events to the town or held in reserve to ensure that we are financially viable going forward. The charity has held an arts festival in Bewdley every year since 1988 and is committed to supporting the arts to the benefit of our local community.

‍

The Festival has over registered 400 Friends of Festival who pay an annual subscription and around 4,000 people attend our events throughout the year. Our annual income is approximately £65,000 per annum, of which 60% comes from ticket sales.

‍

Our work includes:

• Bringing music, comedy, plays, poetry and informative talks to the town.
• Holding literary events for internationally known and local authors.
• Working with young people through Bewdley Youth Festival to develop their talent; enable them to gain practical experience of performing and to build their confidence.
• Holding arts exhibitions and involving the local community in arts projects.

‍

We take great pride in the quality of our events, ensuring they are professionally run and that they result in a good experience for our performers and our audiences.
