Exclusive first public showing of Arts Festival video

Monday, 24 November 2014

Our friends at Hebden Bridge Arts Festival have given Hebweb the first public showing of a great new video focusing on their two days of free street entertainment this summer.

The video made by Graham Hardy focuses on local and international performers who took part in the Street Sundae and Le Grand D'Party events entertaining thousands of local folk and visitors in town for Le Tour.

Artistic Director Helen Meller said: "We have always valued Hebweb's support for our street festivals which not only entertain locals, but bring in lots of tourists to join in the fun boosting the town's economy.

"We think Graham has done a brilliant job capturing not only the antics of some brilliant performers, including the Singing Nun, but all the fun people had over the two days."
