Pershore thanks for Festival success

The organisers of the recent Pershore Midsummer Brass Festival have thanks everyone — even the sun for making a succesful an appearance!

Pershore
 

The organisers of the Pershore Midsummer Brass Festival have taken the opportunity to thank everyone who took part in this year’s event.

Fabulous

A spokesperson told 4BR: "It was a fabulous event this year – made special by the bands, the amazing help and the glorious weather.

The marquee has come down, the Angel Inn is just a pub next to the river again, whilst the shoppers will walk into ASDA without the aid of great brass band music to help them on their way – but even now the whole town is still talking about the Festival."

We thank everyone for their efforts and we are already dreaming and planning for 2013Festival spokesperson

2013

They added: "We thank everyone for their efforts and we are already dreaming and planning for 2013. We’ll do our very best to make it a fantastic day next year — so make a date in your diary July 6th 2013."
