The Fame Contest, on Saturday, 18th June, in the Townsend Hall, is a must for aspiring local musicians to enter, with the winners of solo/duet, and bands categories getting an opportunity to play on the main stage on the Proms’ last night.

Classical music includes The Orchestra of The Swan, the Shipston Town Band and Young Musicians’ night at St Martin’s Church, Barcheston, world music comes from Leamington Spa-based community samba band Sambassadors of Groove, and folk with Stratford Folk Club coming into town.

As usual the power of music will be celebrated in schools, halls and pubs in the town and surrounding villages with events every day over the period, say organisers.

The fortnight finishes with the now legendary free concert in the Town Square with a Goin’ Local theme with the two Fame Contest category winners, then two legendary local bands Kinky Farnham and Wired finishing off the night with style.
