We are excited to welcome you to our first festival, held over three days in the historic and picturesque village of Abbotsbury in Dorset. We bring together talented young musicians and established stars of classical, jazz and folk music, from 3 to 5 July.
The programme is designed for ‘total immersion', with different flavours over 15 events, in and around the stunning Tithe Barn. We have kept the cost of tickets as low as we can and recommend discounted single and three-day passes as excellent value. You can find information on how to book them at the end of the programme below, along with more information to answer any practical questions. See you in July!
Friday, Saturday, Sunday day passes and full festival passes available.
We are using Eventbrite to sell tickets. To buy individual tickets: please click on the button that says ‘Book Now’ on the events listings page or the individual event page. To purchase single or three-day passes, please click on the links at the bottom of the programme on the events listing page.
If you have any issues or questions, please get in touch.
We will refund the cost of the ticket (excluding Eventbrite’s booking fees) up to seven days before the event. We are a small charitable project, and most of our costs are not covered by ticket sales, so we will consider cancellations closer to the date individually. Please get in touch if you need to cancel within this window and would like a refund.
Tree of Strings welcomes everyone, and access and inclusion are at the heart of our planning. This guide contains information about accessing our events and the facilities available to our audiences. Don’t hesitate to contact us if you have any questions or requirements.Â
Anything goes. We want you to feel comfortable and relaxed. We advise an extra layer for evening concerts in the Tithe Barn, and bring walking shoes if you want to walk up to the magical hilltop chapel.
We bring together three branches of musical life. Explore Education and Development
We work with schools and local partners to offer creative projects and opportunities with professional musicians. These sessions are designed to spark curiosity and confidence. We want pupils to feel that music can be playful, absorbing and part of everyday life.
We provide performance platforms for exceptional soloists and ensembles at the start of their careers. Tree of Strings wants to be a place where young musicians can take artistic risks, develop new projects and build lasting relationships with audiences, mentors and fellow performers.
