Southampton Festival of Music and Drama was established in 1926, and has been providing a wide range of competitive music classes for both children and adults ever since. It has inspired the careers of many musicians and music teachers throughout the years and is a key landmark in the UK Festival Scene. Taking part in March at Thornden School, it attracts entrants from a wide area. Outstanding performances are selected for the Festival Concert which is held in Thornden Hall on a suitable date after the Festival is complete.
A Message from the Chairman
We are back at Thornden Hall as a live festival for 2025.
Festivals such as ours take a great deal of organising and would not happen without the work of our
dedicated section administrators, committee members and volunteers who give freely of their time to make
sure this event happens.
Once again thank you to everyone who has supported the Festival, especially over the last three years. I know
that with everyone’s enthusiasm for this amazing event and your continued support and help, we can look
forward knowing that future generations will gain as much enjoyment from the Festival as we have.
