Good luck at the Festival in November.
Our online entry payment issue has now been resolved by PayPal. We are accepting entries for all disciplines aside from Dance, while we consolidate numbers already received.
Thanks for your patience,

We regret to inform you that we have had to close entries to the festival for a short period. We have a problem with PayPal & hope to re-open soon. Please bear with us. Those who have entries in baskets can be assured they will be submitted.
Apologies,
RWBAF Chairs & Committee
UPDATE 02/09/25:
We still have ongoing payment issues with our third-party payment provider (PayPal).
BUT:
Entries can now be submitted and paid for by bank transfer.
Thank you for your patience whilst we have organised this workaround,
The Festival Volunteer Team.
We will advertise the re-opening of the online entries system on our Latest News page, on X, and on Meta.
We are aware of payment issues and are working hard with our third-party payment provider (PayPal) so we ask that you kindly check her, FB, or twitter to find out when this issue has been resolved. We are not wanting to take BACS payments, so please bear with us.
Thank you for your patience,
The Volunteer Festival Team.

We are delighted to announce that Julie Williams is the new Music
Chair of the Royal Wootton Bassett Arts Festival. Julie’s background is in music where she had a career as a professional singer. She opened her own Performing Arts School in 1993, because she believes in nurturing those with talent to further their experience within the arts. Julie is really enthusiastic about working with everyone at the committee, and we are delighted to welcome her on board in her new role.
We are delighted to reveal our brand new syllabus for this year’s RWB Arts Festival.
Do please have a look and share with your network. We look forward to welcoming you in November this year.
