Artistic innovation and musical discovery in the Welsh Marches. Situated in an intimate town on the Powys/Herefordshire border, the Presteigne Festival has become a focal point for those seeking artistic nourishment and musical discovery in idyllic surroundings. With a truly forward looking commissioning policy, the organisation works closely with composers and artists to create and curate inspiring programmes and events for an ever-widening Festival community. The Presteigne Festival takes place each year over a 6-day period at the end of August and has become a major part of the British cultural calendar.
