Update48 #1

It's been an exciting month for the Upton48 team, with plans in full swing for March's Spring Fling! In late October, our chair met with Malvern Hills District Council to discuss potential funding for promotional materials. We are pleased to say that the talk was a success, so keep an eye out for Upton48's banners and flyers appearing in the coming months!

The date and time of our Spring Fling has been confirmed, starting on Friday 13th March at 7pm and concluding 48 hours later on Sunday 15th. Across these two days, each of our venues will feature between three and five bands. Several venues will offer specific genres to the public - as of writing this update, Bar Severn has been confirmed as the festival's official rock venue! Other confirmed venues include The Swan, The Anchor, The Boathouse, The King's Head and The White Lion. A provisional list of to-be-confirmed venues can be found on our website.

Arrangements are being made to introduce Upton48 wristbands for festival-goers. These wristbands will be optional and will allow for discounts in participating venues. The money made from these wristbands will go towards expanding and improving Upton48's future festivals!

If you own a local business and would be interested in working with us, feel free to contact us via our Facebook page.
