We are deep in brochure production here at Festival House and it's shaping up to be a fantastic year! The full programme will be announced in July so there is not long to wait now.
We had some exciting news last month that our application to the Arts Council has been successful meaning that something special will be happening in 2013 and 2014; watch this space for the latest news.
Finally, we've heard about some great events coming up this month including an afternoon organised by our Festival Friends Committee and open to all at the glorious Doddington Gardens - we'd love to see you there!

Viennese Chamber Concert
Continuing their Golden Jubilee celebrations, Canterbury Christ Church University will be hosting an evening of chamber music by Mozart and Beethoven. 'Viennese Conversations' offers a snapshot of chamber music, played on period instruments, giving an insight into the sound world of classical chamber music as imagined by the composers themselves.

Notes from the Past & the USO Dance Party
The Urban Soul Orchestra will be performing at two events at the Faversham Festival. The first will showcase music written at the time of key events in Faversham’s history, connecting the colourful characters and moments of Faversham’s past to memorable musical pieces (expect an eclectic mix of Baroque-to Bar-rock, Classical to The Clash and Folk-lore to Film-score). Then in the evening, the party really starts with the USO Dance Party featuring VJ Marc Chazot and DJ Jack Dedman.
