Wenlock Olympian Live Arts Festival - Wenlock Olympian Society

The second weekend of the 2018 Wenlock Olympian Live Arts Festival took place on Saturday 24 March and Sunday 25 March 2018.

Here are a small selection of the comments received from competitors and their supporters after the event:

“I thought the singing adjudicators were fantastic. They were positive and encouraging whilst managing to find something constructive to point out to help the students improve in the future”

“Lovely positive adjudicators-perfect environment for first public performance.”

“A well run and organised festival catering for all genres”

“We have been attending the past 3 years, it is a wonderfully organised event, we have come to look forward to this event annually. Venue is great, parking is free and entry in the dance world everything is so expensive it is fantastic to attend an event that doesn’t cost the earth. A “huge” thank you to everyone who gives up their free time to run this festival so well- You are all amazing”
