FESTIVAL PROGRAMME NOW LIVE!

The Festival Programme, which continues to expand and evolve on a weekly basis is now available to view online. It's already bulging with great things and, while all details are subject to regular updates and amendments, we decided to make it live as early as possible to enable delegates to begin planning their own itinerary for the Festival.

DELEGATE LIST

This year we will also be sharing the Delegate List with you via the website which will enable all registered delegates to see who else is attending, allowing you to not only plan what you want to see during the festival... but who you want to see (and meet!) The information shown is of course determined during registration and can be amended at any time. For administrative purposes and to help identify you to one another during the festival we require a good clear passport size photo. Photos will be included on the passes issued to delegates on arrival at the Festival. Any registered delegates who have not yet provided photos, would you please do so at your earliest convenience.
