Waived Entry Fee
Further to some really useful feedback from bands and individuals we would like to make some changes and clarifications to the Festival Showcase Section.
- Bands in this section can be un-registered, scratch bands, registered bands who don’t wish to enter their normal section, small bands who are unable to enter their section due to player challenges or bands made up of more than one organisation i.e. two bands wishing to attend but don’t have enough players so wish to join forces.
- Players in this section can play for bands in any of the other sections, there is no restriction on playing for more than one band.
- As the Festival Showcase is a trial, we have decided to waive the entry fee this year to allow us to gauge interest.
- Although we don’t currently propose to award trophies in this section we will be reviewing the spare trophies that we do have with a view to utilising these where possible.
This section is all about making the festival more accessible to musicians from a range of backgrounds and situations, and we welcome ideas on how to make this successful.
