Towcester Town Council

Towcester is pleased to announce the
19th Annual Midsummer Music Festival

The event will start ONLINE at 6:30pm on Saturday 19th June 2021

The Rotary and Lions clubs of Towcester are combining once again to put on another sparkling event which will be hosted by the Town Mayor.

The Government 'Roadmap' for the end of lockdown predicts normality by mid-June. However, this is provisional. There is also no clear guidance about what restrictions on 'distancing' and live events will still be in place. Because of this uncertainty, Midsummer Music 2021 will again be a virtual event, available on the Towcester Midsummer Music Festival Facebook and YouTube channels.

Last year, because of the lockdown, our local artistes were asked whether they could provide a virtual contribution. 32 local musical acts took part and our festival reached over 23,000 people on Facebook (as far away as Australia) with the videos being viewed nearly 9,000 times.

We hope to match last year's success with our offering for Midsummer Music 2021. There will be performances from the very best of Towcester's own musical stars as well as from visiting artistes.

This entertainment is designed for all the family, so, tune in at 6:30pm on Saturday 19th June and have a wonderful time!

Donations to the Town Mayor's Charities

The Midsummer Music Festival usually raises funds for the Mayor's charities through the sale of programmes and bucket collections during the live festival. However, as this is not possible for a virtual event, you can make donations in the ways listed below.

This year, Towcester Town Mayor, Cllr Damian Reynolds, is fundraising for the Renew169 Wellbeing Cafe and Northamptonshire Air Ambulance.
