About this Event
Welcome to Foley Fest!
Aine Magee, AKA Miss Foley, died in November 2024 after a long battle with cancer. Aine was a much loved wife and mother to two teenagers. Aine was also a teacher and taught for nearly 30 years. She spent over 20 years teaching at the Cardinal Vaughan Memorial School (CVMS)
We were helped and supported by a number of charities whilst Aine was sick. They are reliant on donations and we wanted to support them by organising an event in Aine’s memory.
Alongside her family, friends and her work, Aine loved her music so we organised Foley Fest 2025. It was a day of music, singing, dancing and laughter and suitably honoured Aine’s memory.
We are repeating the festival on a larger and more profitable scale. CVMS have offered us their iconic grounds in the shadow of Twickenham Stadium.
The Smiths were Aine’s favourite band and were a continuous thread throughout her life. Therefore, we are delighted and grateful to announce that The Joneses have agreed to headline. The Joneses are legends amongst the worldwide community of Smiths fans where they are renowned both for their stripped down and dramatic tribute based on The Smiths live gigs and their lead singer’s uncanny resemblance to Morrissey. We warmly welcome them to Twickenham.
We are also really pleased that Mikey Magee has agreed to return and once again bring his unique brand of Manchester inspired indie rock to a south west London field.
We are happy introduce singer songwriter Dean Longden and his band. Dean’s music blends raw emotive storytelling with heartfelt melodies. He has been blessed with some amazing teachers and is destined to go far.
We also have a number of planned special guest appearances both performing and hosting DJ sets. Information will be released closer to the time and on the day.
There will be music, singing, dancing and laughter. It will also be an opportunity to raise. funds for and awareness of cancer support services in west London.
We will again be raising money for Marie Curie to provide a rapid response service in west London. This means specialist nurses are available throughout the night to visit and dispense Medic*tion and care as well as advice and support to those in the final stages of cancer. They also provided staff to sit with patients through their last nights allowing family and loved ones respite and sleep.
We have a range of VIP and sponsorship packages. If you are able to support us in other ways please feel free to reach out at :
