The 10-day festival boasts a series of community events featuring many top TV personalities. There’s everything from comedy to drama, party nights and family-fun.

The majority of our events will be held in a marquee at the Duke of Wellington pub, thanks to its owners, Karen and Bill Suter, who have kindly granted TVP exclusive use of their bottom garden. I hope the festival will grow into a huge village event, but since this year is our first, we have chosen one main venue which we hope will sell out comfortably and make a profit for local charities. Other venues in Twyford will be holding daytime events including St Mary’s Church where our classical finale will take place.
