2010 Festival….
The format of the festival has changed significantly for the 2010 festival. The majority of events will now take place on two outside stages, which are situated in Luton Town Centre at Market Hill and St Georges Square. Time wise everything in 2010 will happen over five days- so check out the programme and make sure you catch us before you miss us!! In terms of events we will still be bringing you the same eclectic mix as last year including live music, dance and theatre performances, poetry and spoken word events, and arts exhibitions and installations. Particular highlights this year include the addition of a comedy stage and the festivals first full-length film festival which is being organised by a group of Undergraduate students. (Check out the link on the main website page to view the full film fest programme) To support the community ethos of the festival all events this year are also free! We hope you’re as excited as we are about this year’s festival and we look forward to seeing you at all the events!!
