John & Penny Adie
Founders of the Two Moors Festival

Many thanks to Penny Adie for joining the "Classical Journey" programme on Phonic FM last Friday (22 September) to discuss the Two Moors Festival and the artists who are coming to Dartmoor and Exmoor to entertain us from Friday 13 October to Saturday 21 October.


On this week's programme (Friday 6 October 2-4pm) Penny's Public Relations Officer, Fleur Chaffé, will join the programme at 2.10pm or so - to discuss the festival schedule in more detail.

An overview of the concerts in the line-up is shown below. In each case there is a link to a page on the Festival Website which gives further details on performers, programme and prices - and provides a means to book tickets online.

Tickets also from: 'Exeter Visitor Information & Tickets' (EVIT) in Dix's Field.
Telephone: 01392 665885  Mon-Wed & Fri 9-4.30 Thu & Sat 9-4 (closed 12.30-1.15)

The Two Moors Festival continues the work started by Penny and John Adie in 2001. John Adie is remembered through the John Adie Memorial Appeal (The Imagine Appeal) which supports young musicians in education and professional development, encourages community participation in music, commissions new compositions, and promotes live music for new audiences.
