Highbridge Festival of the Arts

Festival of Dance, Music, Speech and Drama held in Burnham on Sea and Highbridge Somerset. Our 2020 Festival saw over 2000 performances across our three venues: The Princess Theatre, Burnham-on-Sea, Highbridge Community Hall and St John’s Church, Highbridge. Competitors in Speech & Drama, Dance and Music delighted the audiences with their performances, many of which achieved distinction marks. Our adjudicators, Eleanor McLeod, Geoff Lucas and Donal McCrisken gave excellent feedback, which was .. continue reading appreciated by both the competitors and audience, and all three said how much they had enjoyed being part of Highbridge Festival of The Arts 2020. We were delighted that the Towns’ Mayor, Andy Brewer, was able to join us on three occasions to witness the fantastic talent on show from the local area. Addressing the audience on the final day of the festival he said, “The towns should be very proud of this tremendous event, which is a real celebration of The Arts. I hope that more members of the public will join the audience next year or even take part in the festival!” We would like to thank all of the competitors for their continued support of our Festival, the adjudicators for their hard work and valued feedback, the management of the venues for allowing us to take over their spaces and the 70 volunteers who helped to organise and run this year’s festival.
