Just a few final thank yous from the Hatherleigh Festival Committee 🤗🥰

Firstly, a massive thank you to The Devon Marquee Company Limited. We have worked with George and his team for as long as we can remember, they have always been extremely kind, reasonable and adaptable in the way they look after us. As that well known saying goes - “there ain’t no party like a Devon Marquee party” 🥳 🙌

Thank you to RJB Works for once again dropping everything to set up our staging so that we could entertain you all weekend long with our amazing live acts! 🤩

Thank you to Matthew Armstrong of MPA freelance for managing the sound and lighting all weekend - we have had so many positive comments about the technical setup of Hatherleigh Festival this year and it’s all down to Matt. 🎶💡

And finally, thank you to Royston 'Stone' Naylor who was always right on the edge of the action throughout festival week turning memories into photos. 🙌
