Thame Town Music Festival is a FREE one-day festival held in Thame Town Centre and multiple venues around the town.
The High Street is closed and the fun kicks off on the main stage outside the Town Hall at 12 noon. There are 11 venues with over 70 acts – genres, all brilliant!
This year’s headliners are the fabulous BIG COUNTRY!!
Thame Town Music Festival is ticketless and open to all, it is a not-for-profit event funded through donations, grants and sponsorship and is organised by a dedicated team of volunteers.
The last festival held in 2019 held in Thame town centre and 8 other venues, attracted an estimated 12,500 visitors. In 2022 the organisers are adding a special dedicated BBC Introducing stage to highlight young, emerging talent. The stage is to be curated by radio presenter Dave Gilyeat and his team at BBC Introducing in Oxfordshire.
A new partnership with The Academy of Contemporary Music (ACM) has also been formed. ACM has been training artists, producers and business entrepreneurs for careers in the creative industries since 1995. ACM Alumni include some pretty well-known names, such as Ed Sheeran, Matt Healey of The 1975, Newton Faulkner and many, many more. This new stage will feature artists who are current students, plus it will be headlined by China Bears, who are also ACM alumni.
