As a prelude to festival week, the popular Arts Exhibition provided local artists the chance to exhibit and sell their work
Starting on October 3rd with The Bohemians who promise to take you on a high energy roller-coaster ride of a concert, featuring the back catalogue of one of the world’s most popular and iconic rock bands of all time! If you love Queen, you won’t want to miss this!
Acclaimed tribute band Fleetwood Bac gave a barn-storming performance at St Michael’s and All Angels Church in July. The band, who look and sound just like the real thing and play all the hits with uncanny accuracy, played to a full church and had an ecstatic audience dancing in the aisles.
Tickets for the 2024 festival events are sale online now, and tickets will also be available to buy from our new ticket office at Stationery House in Somerton from 1st May. You can find out about all our fabulous Festival events on our Events page.
Somerton’s iconic music festival Somerstock is part of the Somerton Music and Arts Festival. Somerstock 2024 rolled back into town on Friday 12th and Saturday 13th, filling the Recreation ground with summer vibes, music and dancing. A fantastic lineup of musicians played on Friday evening and all day on Saturday along with all the usual attractions, bars and street food to set the taste buds alight.
Plans are already taking shape for the next edition of Somerstock… Watch this space!
The Festival Fortnight begins this year on 30th June with Cardiff Strings at St Michael’s Church. Events to follow include music nights at our local hostelries, talks and walks. It all culminates with Somerton’s own music festival, Somerstock. But before this, from the end of May into June there are pre festival events including craft and art workshops, live music from Twisted Vinyl at the Sports Club and the Art & Photography exhibition at the Parish Rooms.
There is so much local talent in our area. Visitors to the festival can see it all and even learn some new skills themselves, whether music, history, crafts or bees are your thing. There’s something going on to suit everyone at various locations around the town and many of the events are free.
We are a community event, and we couldn’t do any of it without the help of our sponsors and advertisers, and of course all our willing volunteers. If you’d like to join our merry team, please do get in touch.
We look forward to seeing you at some, or even all, of our events!
