festival programmes have arrived

we've just had a delivery of thousands of Festival Programmes, a record eight days before the Festival actually starts. Since 2004, when the programmes arrived the day after the festival started, getting them back early has been a key June priority. We normally manage to get them in the office two, maybe three days in advance, but we've never had them more than a week in advance before.
Through in-kind sponsorship from both our new printers PCP and our long term in-kind paper sponsors A1 Paper, we actually have been able to reduce the price from the £5 it has been for over a decade to a recession busting £2.50. It was a bargain before. It is an incredible bargain now. This programme is packed with information for each event, and is available from the Festival Office from this Friday. We'll also be around in town this weekend in our new volunteer shirts (more of which later).
