Dear Friends and Supporters,
Following the previous message announcing the difficulty the festival was facing we are very pleased to report that a number of people have come forward and we now have an enhanced team and will be running the festival in 2027.
The Suffolk Festival of Performing Arts is a well-established charity that has been hosting competitions in drama, music and dance for over 95 years. Throughout that time, our mission has remained the same: to empower local talent and to provide a space for performers to show their craft and dedication. From classical piano to vocal solo, monologue to group drama, we believe every performance is special and invite you, whether you are taking part or watching, to join us in celebrating the rich artistic tradition of the Suffolk Festival.
“Inside every performer is a beginner who fell in love”
Our competitions are for amateur performers and are divided into a range of
subcategories and age groups. If you would like to volunteer with the running of the festival, get in contact with us at enquiries@suffolk-festival.org.uk – we are always looking for new volunteers to join our team!
