Statement from Towersey Festival on Thame Showground

With Towersey now just over a week away, we're already on-site and starting to get everything in place to welcome KT Tunstall, Newton Faulkner, and everyone else, over the August Bank Holiday weekend.

As many of you may be aware, the previous occupants left the site in a sorry state. But we have over 50 years of putting on professional, top flight festivals, and experience has taught us to ensure we have robust plans in place to meet any challenge. We’ve never cancelled a Towersey. This year is no exception and was never in doubt.

So with our customary hard work, dedication and a fair bit of investment to make the site workable, we'll to be ready to greet enthusiastic and peaceful Towersey-goers from Thame and all over the country next Thursday (as we do every year), for what we believe will be one of the best Towersey’s ever. Weekend Tickets are almost sold out and Day Tickets for KT, Newton, The Blockheads and more are selling very fast, so we recommend prompt purchase.

We hope you can join us, and look forward to seeing you and remember, this event inputs nearly quarter of a million pounds into the local economy annually (2015 Audience Survey). Find out more here

And this year we are supporting Thames Valley Air Ambulance in their fundraising efforts as our official Charity Partner, as well as giving away over 100 tickets locally to raffles, schools and charities.

With kind regards
Team Towersey

You are warmly invited to attend Death Cafe in Thame. at 7:30pm in room 1 of the Barns Centre, and held on the third Thursday of each month thereafter A Death Cafe is an informal gathering where people can discuss death over tea and cake. We’re aiming to normalise the topic of death, raise acceptance, and help people make the most of their lives by breaking the taboo around mortality. It is not a grief support group or counselling session. These sessions have no agenda, objectives, or themes, allowing for organic, group-directed conversations about anything related to death, from end-of-life planning to fears and feelings, fostering open sharing in a respectful, confidential space. Death Cafe is run on a not-for-profit basis but if you are able to make…
