Where it all started
Extonbury Music Festival started out as a small private celebration of local artists, first becoming a public event in 2009. Now heading for our 13th year it has become a popular charity music event for the people of Exton and Rutland, showcasing talent from across the region. |
Our aims
Extonbury is a charity event raising money for causes close to our hearts. We also want to support the small businesses which are part of our community and who help us put the festival together. And of course it is a celebration of music given freely by performers of all ages. |
Exton Village Hall
Once again our cause is very close to home! From its first day in the thirties the Village Hall has been an essential part of our community. From dances with GIs in the forties to modern day Pilates and yoga classes, not forgetting its role in providing the toilets for Extonbury the Hall has seen continuous heavy use. In 2018 with the help of Extonbury Festival goers we brought its appearance and facilities firmly into the 21st century so that we can give an even better service to users from all over the county and beyond. In 2019 we want to complete the project with new furniture and internet access. The Hall is a registered charity and is carrying out these massive improvements entirely from its own funds and cannot complete the work without support from Extonbury and other fundraisers.
