what makes towersey special?

“Absolutely very nearly, but not quite the very best festival in the world” Jeremy Symondson

Is it the village location in the heart of the Oxfordshire countryside?  Is it the huge line up of top folk roots and acoustic music artists?  Maybe its the best toilets, showers and camping on the festival scene or the huge range of catering and trade stalls or the high quality production, sound and lights.......?

Or maybe it’s a bit of everything?

Anyone who has ever been to Towersey will tell you they want to come back year after year for the rest of their life! And in the main they mean it.

There's just something very special that happens on that August bank holiday weekend below the huge blue-skied days and stunning starlit nights.  It makes Towersey an amazingly laid back and yet very exciting place to be for four days and five nights of................well something very magical.
