2017 was set to be the final Cornbury Festival, indeed it was referred to as the Fabulous Finale, however festival organiser Hugh Phillimore has had a change of heart due to fans feedback.  Cornbury Festival will return to Great Tew Park from Friday 13th to Saturday 15th July2018.

Hugh Phillimore said:

‘So many people have sent messages since July - our audience love the event and want it to keep going. Literally hundreds of our supporters, together with bands, agents, managers, sponsors and media partners telling me I shouldn’t let such a jewel in the festival calendar end’ . ‘The festival market has become a tough playing field over the last few years and very saturated, which lead partly to my decision to leave whilst we were on a high, however the response has been so overwhelming with support for Cornbury to remain, that it has caused a rethink on my part and I can confirm that we have decided to listen to public opinion and return next year as strong as ever in July 2018, If people still want us here, in a way It would be foolish to stop now and 15 years does give us another great reason to celebrate!’

More details will follow shortly.
