What’s happened to Burtonfest this year ?
By Webmaster | June 22, 2009
The more observant of villagers may have noted the lack of a large marque and loud music in June.
Burtonfest hasn’t gone away, but we’re having to scale back what we’re doing in 2009. There’s no doubt about the recession – as we’ve lost large number of our usual funding sources. With so much to pay for and with so many people in the local area having to cut back, we can’t honestly ask anyone for an increase in ticket prices, so we’ve had no option than to redress with an “alternative” Burtonfest 2009.
All should be announced after the next Committee meeting, but the forecast at the moment is for a much smaller festival being held later in the year, when it doesn’t clash with other local events.
