Farley Music Festival in The Close is now in its second season, after a very successful launch last year. Whereas the summer Farley Music Festival in All Saints' Church showcases established musicians, the concerts in The Close are for up and coming students from the Royal Academy of Music in London. There are three piano concerts taking place over the course of a day, at 11:30, 14:30 and 18:00. Tickets are available via the ticket button here, or via the website www.farleymusic.co.uk. Each concert is priced at £10, but students have free entry and do not need to book in advance.
