Come and see us at St Albans' M Festival - Saturday 30th June 2018

26/3/2018

 
Back in 2010 a small group of parents and staff from The Marlborough Science Academy came together to build on the idea of hosting a music festival as a PTA fundraising event. With a small stage and audience and just a handful of performers, the festival just about broke even.
8 years later and the very same team with the help of further volunteers have established M Festival as a fantastic annual event that has now raised in excess of £65,000 for the school. Things have changed slightly since 2010 and with a much bigger stage, better sound, more entertainment, lighting, pyrotechnics, activities, food & drink and a firework finale, M Festival has come along way and now attracts around 3000 people.
We hope to see you on Saturday 30th June 2018 to make our 9th M Festival even better!
