Southwell Music Festival takes place each August Bank Holiday weekend and attracts audiences totalling over 3,500 people. The Festival was founded by Artistic Director Marcus Farnsworth in 2014 and achieves high critical acclaim for its performances. The programme is a mix of choral, orchestral and chamber music, plus jazz and folk, all performed by renowned professional soloists, singers and musicians.
