The Town Party

Ledbury Poetry Festival is thrilled to announce the return of our fantastic Town Party!

On the 11th of July, from 11 am to 5pm on Ledbury High Street we invite you to join in a climactic celebration of our wonderful Festival. We expect to see Ledbury High Street thronging with people eating, dancing and having fun!

Our Town Party is a chance for all the family to feast on the finest local produce from our Summer Food Fair and to listen to live music and poets including one of the UK's most bold and innovative Cuban Bands, Cuban Combination. Also there will be music from Ramblin' Pony who herald from Birmingham and will bring the raw power of the blues to the Ledbury poetry festival.

           

              

As well as the following local producers there will be a Hog Roast supplied by the award winning family butcher's D.T Waller & Sons.
