Support from Urban Fusion enables Festival to relocate to & remain in Birmingham

We are writing to thank you very much for your kind support of the 35th Anniversary National Festival through the Urban Fusion programme. The move from its London home to Birmingham went extremely well and 10,000 young musicians, singers and dancers took part in this six-day celebration. We have had a lot of positive feedback from performers and audiences alike.

The support we have received from Urban Fusion has been very helpful in relocating the Festival to Birmingham. Following the success of the Festival this year, we are pleased to confirm that the 2006 National Festival will be held in Birmingham.
