8th - 21st June 1980
An introduction to the Festival as taken from the programme of events...
The Festival is to take place in various venues in the attractive small market town of Leominster. The town, which grew up around the Priory Church and is still largely medieval in character, is well worth a visit not only for the many interesting features it has to offer, but also for its setting in beautiful Herefordshire countryside close to the Wye Valley and Black Mountains of Wales.
The Leominster Festival Society is promoting this Festival in order to bring a varied programme of music, drama and the visual arts to the people of Leominster and the surrounding countryside. It is hoped that many visitors from further afield will consider it worthwhile including Leominster in their holiday plans. We should like to draw attention to the two Saturdays within the Festival fortnight, 14th and 21st June, when parents should bring their children to an entirely FREE entertainment in the town centre.
