Welcome to the website for the 

Buckingham Festival of Music and Drama 

 

If you’ve arrived here out of curiosity and are wondering what we’re all about, can I tell you straight away that this sort of Festival could be for you! If you’ve ever had an urge to perform, then this is your chance to have a go - in front of a friendly audience and a professional Adjudicator who will tell you what you’re doing right and how you could do even better. You might even win a medal! Have a look at the Syllabus, choose a class which suits you and fill in the Entry Form - all available from this website.

For those of you who have supported our Festival in the past, we have some exciting new classes, in both the Speech and Drama and Music sections, along with the old favourites. ‘Speak Up!’ gives you the chance to win over a live audience with a prepared speech - or try your hand at putting on a short dramatic work with a few friends. If you are a budding singer-songwriter or if you play in a band have a look at our new ‘acoustic’ and ‘unplugged’ classes.

This year we have new venues which will give us better performance areas and bring more of the classes together under one roof - a big help for those having to hurry from one class to another. Car parking will be much easier too.

We’re all looking forward to a bigger and better Festival this year - come on in, the water’s lovely!
