Welcome to Petworth Festival

Firstly many, many thanks to all of you who supported both the 2011 Festival and our first Literary Weekend in November. Both were strikingly successful and as such we approach 2012 in great spirit and full of anticipation for pleasures to come.

As in previous years the summer festival will go on sale shortly after Easter, the box office opening progressively to sponsors, patrons, friends and the general public between 18 April - 18 May. Knowing how quickly tickets tend to sell, we would urge that you join our various friends and sponsors schemes in order to have best access to tickets.

Even as we write we are confident that the 2012 festival will have many unmissable highlights both in terms of the music and the wider programmes. We look forward to welcoming you through our doors once again if you are an existing supporter or if you are coming across us for the first time.

All good wishes

Stewart Collins and the Petworth Festival team
