Why is there a charge? Maidenhead Festival is a Community Interest Company (CIC) and is entirely not for profit and is run entirely by volunteers. This means we have to raise £60,000 every year to be able to put the event on. There is a small entry free for the Battle of the Bands Full Band nights to help raise a very small amount to be used to bring the Festival to town. The venue does not take any fee for hosting the events.

Introducing Last Years Winners
Courtlands Stories were the winners of the contest and therefore got to perform on the main stage at Maidenhead Festival as our warm-up act. This is what they had to say about the experience “The Battle of the Bands contest has been a game-changer for us. It ignited an incredible wave of publicity, propelling us into the local limelight with numerous live gigs and festival appearances.”
“For us the most exciting moment was performing before the main act at The Maidenhead Festival—an incredible experience on a grand stage, made even more special being local.” “As contenders in various contests, we wholeheartedly endorse the impeccably organised and seriously curated “Battle of the Band”. It's a invaluable opportunity and prime showcase for artists aspiring to be recognised for their true talent.” |
