Mitcheldean Festival

Once again there is an opportunity to book a slot at the Mitcheldean Festival’s Friday night concert on July 18th by entering and winning our annual song writing competition.

Established in memory of the Festival’s great friend and performer Dick Brice, the theme for this year’s competition is Community.

Entry is by recording of a performance of a brand new song, together with the lyrics. See more details by downloading the file below, but we are looking forward to receiving your entry by Friday 25th April.

Meanwhile other Festival slots this year will be filled from among the many people already known, with many thanks again to all the fabulous performers we have hosted since we began the Festival in 2014!

Dick Brice Songwriting Competition 2025

Come and enjoy the fun in Mitcheldean Parish Church, immediately after the switching on of the Christmas lights at 6pm.

There will be a bar in the church with refreshments, come on down!

So much fun in Mitcheldean this year, not forgetting the first year of the Dick Brice song writing competition with so many great entries – so many thanks to everyone who helped make it a success. We’re already looking forward to 2025 – Cheers!
