About
Abbfest is a volunteer run, charity festival that raises money for local charities and organisations. Over the 16 years Abbfest has been running over £250,000 has been raised. We are entirely run by volunteers. Without our volunteers, sponsors and most importantly, attendees this wouldn’t have been possible, a big Thank You to all who help put the festival together and support us.

Abbfest’s main aim is to raise funds for our community and local charities by staging a Festival, or other activity as determined by the Trustees, and by doing so promote local drink, food, craft and entertainment. Every year Abbfest hosts a wonderful weekend full of live music, locally produced beer & cider, chef demonstrations and a food & craft market full of local artisan producers
