Banbridge Performing Arts Festival

URGENT  COMMUNICATION

Letter from Patricia Mulligan Hon. Sec.

11th January 2021

It is with great regret and sadness that the committee of the Banbridge Performing Arts Festival [Speech and Drama] have to announce, that due to the current situation re the Covid19 lockdown and the serious problems faced by schools, private teachers and parents [with home schooling issues], that the February 2021 festival has had to be cancelled.  

The 46th annual Festival will now take place from Monday 22nd to Friday 26th November 2021 in the Belmont Hotel.

We thank you for your tremendous support over the years and hope to see you all back with us in November 2021 when we will have Ailbhe Garvey-Hughes [Galway] and Tish Nichol [England] with us and when two or possibly three rooms will be back in operation.

Please hold on to your syllabus as poems etc will not change and the usual group classes will be reinstated.

Patricia Mulligan

Hon. Sec.
