About Us

​

Inaugurated in 1925, the Wadebridge Festival has a long and successful history of providing a platform for Cornish musicians, young and old, to share their passion for both music and the spoken word; it is a well attended, friendly festival enjoyed by so many.

​

Over the six day festival, individuals, music ensembles, choirs and schools compete to win trophies across a range of categories. Subject to entries, the festival runs from Monday to Saturday inclusive.

​

The Wadebridge Festival of Music and Speech is a member of the British and International Federation of Festivals as are all adjudicators.

​

Members of the public are warmly invited to attend all competition sessions at the Town Hall in Wadebridge.
