Large festival of world music - indoor and outdoor stages, world food, craft stalls, music, dance, street art and children's activities. The annual festival is held in mid-July each year.
Originally a free event in the town centre, in October 2007 the Trustees took the decision to move the event to a parkland area in the centre of Hitchin in Hertfordshire, the festival offers rock, pop, folk, reggae, jazz and classical music from the local area and around the world.
An event for all ages and musical tastes, you'll be hard pushed to find a better value day out. Organisers announced there would be no event in 2016.
