Oxjam festival plans underway
No Caption ABCDE
A music festival that has been designed to raise to money for Oxfam will be celebrating its fifth annual event next month and is looking for more of Leighton’s muscians to get involved.
Leighton Buzzard’s Oxjam music festival is scheduled to run for three weeks in March and organisers hope the amount raised for Oxfam will top last year’s total of £5,168.
Preparations are already in full swing, with a website and new poster now launched, and a schedule of musical events that includes concerts, pub gigs, and open rehearsals taking shape.
But organisers are still on the lookout for musicians and acts who’d like to take part and need people who are happy to organise their own event, or join with other groups and individuals to put something together.
Organiser Edmund Flach said: “Things are coming together well. We have already got a fantastic range of events lined up, but are keen to get even more, and particularly to cover as many musical tastes as possible during the festival.”
If you would like to take part or help out, you can email Edmund at Edmund.Flach@btopenworld.com.
