About Banstead Arts Festival Society

Banstead Arts Festival Society brings to the local area artists of national and international standing, as well as outstanding local talent. From September to March the Society presents a series of professional concerts and at the beginning of May each year a Festival is held: a wide variety of evening events - music from jazz to chamber ensembles and all shades in between! - and lunch-time concerts, exhibitions, walks, talks and coach visits. We are proud of our association with other local organisations, such as the Banstead History Research Group, Banstead U3A and the Workers Educational Association Banstead & Reigate Branch.  Local schools, churches and art groups regularly take part in the Festival.

Ticket prices are kept as low as possible and our members are particularly attracted by the excellent artists we bring to Banstead, in addition to easy access and parking and good facilities for the disabled. Annual membership costs only £4.00, for which members receive postal information, an advance copy of the Festival programme and an opportunity to attend our Annual General Meeting/ social event. All other events are open to everyone.
