After two years of postponements due to the coronavirus, Twinfest will return from Thursday, July 28 to Sunday, July 30.

Organisers are appealing for performers of all different styles of music and are particularly keen to hear from female musicians.

Musicians must be performing original music, live in Northamptonshire and be able to perform at the festival.

As well as welcoming acts from Northampton’s twinned towns, Twinfest also helps county musicians play at MaNo Musikfestival in Germany and Les Expressifs in Poitiers.
