TOWERSEY Festival is to be held on Thame Showground for the last time, this coming Bank Holiday weekend, 2019, and will move to the Claydon Estate in Buckingham next year, 2020.
Leaflets saying as much have been given out at Artists Reception and there is information about the move displayed in the Merchandise tent on the site.
The reason for the move is reported to be the instability about the long-term future of the show ground, which is currently owned by Thame Agricultural Association.
No one was available for comment from Towersey Show at the time of writing. https://www.towerseyfestival.com/
I have gone into a depression!! It is interesting that there has been nothing said about this on the website before it opened on Thursday. Also, the line up is really good for next year already – reminiscent of having Joan Armatrading on the first festival on the Thame Showground site. I guess those who come from outside Thame will not be bothered where it is being held.
I Love Towersey Festival – it is a highlight of my year and marks the end of Summer. I especially love the fact that is is walking distance from home. I understand why they are doing this, I suppose, but am in mourning!!!
