Towersey in pictures

I've written about Towersey Festival before and how fantastic it is. This time, I'll mainly share pictures....

A small section of the campsite looking towards the Chiltern Hills
Found a hurdy-gurdy player tuning her instrument outside the Ceilidh Tent
"The Big Club", the main concert venue

Inside

The Ceilidh Tent with the Towersey Poplars in the background. I love these trees! I've known them most of their life. Twenty years ago they were newly planted saplings and we were asked not to tie washing lines or tents to them. Now they're grown up and provide a windbreak on the south and west sides of the village playing field.

The newly enlarged dance floor is inspected by early arrivals

Dance floor in use
The floor seems even more chaotic at night. Band: DanceCupola, Caller:Gordon Potts
The late night venue from the camp site

Inside
Towersey at night

Some of the people are quite eccentric...


There are many things to buy...



It's a short walk to the other site and there's a bus to Thame
The children are kept entertained

Overhead, a Red Kite
The lantern procession on the last night. All weekend, people have been at work with wire frames, imagination and tissue paper
