Volunteers needed to secure future of Market Harborough street theatre festival
Organisers of a popular street festival bringing theatre to the town centre of Market Harborough are calling on new volunteers to come forward to keep the annual event going.
Arts Fresco has been performing in Harborough since 2002 and has taken a hiatus for 2026.
Its committee is holding a special meeting next month to recruit new members who can support the future of the festival.
Neil Kitson, chair of the organising committee of Arts Fresco said: “Resource is becoming a critical issue to support the festival going forward, so we’re holding this public event to potentially recruit new committee members who could eventually take over the running of Arts Fresco.
“So, if you’ve loved Arts Fresco as a visitor, resident, performer or supporter in the past, we’d love for you to come and join us at the public meeting where we’ll be talking about how to effectively develop the festival and secure its future.”
People are invited to The Lounge inside Market Harborough Theatre on October 13 from 7.30pm.
