Find Your Voice at the Bandstand
At the heart of the Festival Village sits the Festival Bandstand – a vibrant, open-air stage dedicated to the local artists of our host county.
Whether you are a musical ensemble, a solo artist, or a dance troupe, we want to hear from you. From the Hereford Veterans’ Choir to The Flowers Band, from folk music to the vibrant heritage of the Nethra Academy of Performing Arts, our past highlights reflect the diversity of our community.
There is nothing quite like the atmosphere of the Cathedral Close when it’s filled with live performance and families soaking up the sun. Come and be part of the beating heart of the Festival – bring your talent, find your voice, and help us make the Bandstand unforgettable.
