It’s summer and that means festival time is upon us! This weekend sees the launch of yet another batch, including the Leicester International Music Festival and Bradford International Festival, Be There 2003. Today, Arts Hub previews a number of upcoming festivals in England, but watch this space in coming weeks for events across the British Isles. So no matter where you are in the UK, it’s time to brave the train, grab a cheap flight or organise a road trip, and get out of town!

If you are a chamber music devotee, Leicester is the place to be this weekend. In residence at this year’s Leicester International Music Festival is The Fibonacci Sequence under Artistic Director, Kathon Sturrock, who says this year’s programme has been designed to complement an exhibition at the main festival venue, the New Walk Museum and Art Gallery.
