Cornbury’s Fabulous Finale

cornbury-grand-finale

Cornbury Festival has had a successful 13 year run. It has provided a lovely, rather posh family-friendly event that has converted even the most festival-shy.

However, this year, after much deliberation, the 14th  Cornbury Festival will be the last. The good folk at Cornbury are looking forward to going out with a bang.

They’ve promised us they are pulling out ALL the stops for The Fabulous Finale. There will be all the usual great stuff, an array of top talent, friends old and new. There may even be a few sparklers at the end.
