The Woodley Festival of Music and Arts provides a warm and friendly environment to perform before a professional adjudicator and a supportive audience.

Although a competitive festival, our aim is to provide an enjoyable experience for the performer. Each performer is given written and verbal feedback and medals are awarded to 1st , 2nd and 3rd place.

This festival has been kindly sponsored by Henley-on-Thames based insurance brokers MANNINGUK since 2004. We are very grateful for this generous financial backing and the support afforded to us by Ann Manning, Managing Director of MANNINGUK.
