Glastonbury Extravaganza
Our final summer performance was the honour of opening the Glastonbury Abbey Extravaganza on Saturday 3rd August in front of a sell-out audience of 10,000 followed by popular bands The Lighthouse Family and The Specials.
See: Extravaganza 2019 and 2019 Extravaganza Extra pages for more.
In preparation we invited people to attend our concert-style final rehearsal for this special event in Butleigh Church on Thursday 1st August. We were delighted that a crowd of nearly 100 turned up to fill the Church and help us prepare for our big day the following Saturday.
