After a stellar debut last year, Keynsham Music Festival’s dedicated showcase of youth talent returns. We were so impressed with the quality and diversity of the performances last year that we invited several of them back to perform on the Sunday main stages! With over 60 young performers this year, we are giving even more prominence to them by moving it to The Abbey Stage. This is definitely the place to see the next generation of superstars!

Keynsham Music Festival presents the very best in youth talent!
