MAY we express our sincere thanks to everyone for their support in bringing back Coleford Music Festival after its eight year break. Particular thanks go to the core team of Nicky Holloway, Rachel Thomas, Vicki Thornton and Kevin Jarvis who assisted with selected key aspects of the event, the Youth committee of Finola O’Sullivan, Alex Whiting, Ricky Delaney, Will Baldwin, Devon Cassells and Adam Baynham and, most importantly, everyone who volunteered their time over the weekend to support the event in anyway at all.

This event was only made possible through the invaluable support of Coleford Town Council, James Holland and Rhys Thomas from the Forest of Dean District Council, everyone who donated money or provided sponsorship towards the event, all of the bands that performed at the event and, finally, all those of you that attended and supported.

We all believe the event was a tremendous success and have already muttered the words “next year!”

– Nick Penny and Amanda Smith (Festival directors).
