Mar By: Janey Festival Dates: 13 May 2008 - 17 May 2008Town / Location: BriggWeb Site: http://www.briggfiddlefestival.org.uk/ The 'Fiddle Fest' started as part of the Brigg Live Arts programme and was originally called 'The Fiddle Workout'. The committee of Brigg Live Arts asked Carol Dawson, the organiser of Wootton fiddle club, if she would be interested in putting on some sort of fiddle event during the Arts week. Delighted by this opportunity and inspired by the Fulbeck Fiddle festival, she and her trusty team (Russ, Lynn and Sue,) called on artists such as Loyko, Gina Le Faux, Robin Garside, and the Old Rope String Band. They put together two fantastic concerts, workshops and street entertainment. The Fiddle Workout was such a success that the following year they decided to create the Brigg Fiddle Festival and the rest is history. The Festival now boasts a busking competition, music sessions, an education programme and five concerts. Key 1
