Fyvie Homecoming Festival

Managed by:

Fyvie Amenities Committee

 

Project Description

A large amount of preparatory work has been undertaken to develop a three day festival which will link to Homecoming 2009.  The project will target visitors to Fyvie and has the potential to increase awareness of the area.  The festival includes ticketed events as well as open events for unlimited numbers and is based on traditional music and culture.  The events will target all age groups.  There is a strong level of community support and the Fyvie Amenities Committee has a successful track record in promoting and developing local amenities in Fyvie.
