DUXFEST ’23


WEATHER UPDATE!

The weather forecast for Saturday is for strong winds (over 40mph) from 1pm
onwards so we’ve had to take the decision to move everything indoors, as far as
possible. We hope to still provide most of what was on offer in the afternoon
session, the bands in the evening are still as planned. Only are now indoors.
But it’ll all still be great!
