Roman River Festival 2024

Now a staple part of North Essex cultural life, the Roman River Festival returns for its 24th season, bringing world-class performance – from the classical to the contemporary – to beautiful and unusual venues across North Essex every September.

This year is no exception, with events ranging from a performance inside Jumbo the Water Tower to the chance to hear rising star on the world stage, violinist Hana Chang, perform Tchaikovsky’s Violin Concerto.

The festival has a large and growing fan base; come along and find out for yourselves why the audience says:

“There are not enough superlatives to describe the music I just had the privilege of hearing.”

“Friendly atmosphere, great value, just the sort of music I love – and of such consistently high quality!”

“Fantastic music, fabulous performers, a range of styles, wonderful friendly atmosphere, excellent education programme. It is getting better year on year.”

“Brilliant. I’ve recently moved from London, and if this festival was there, I wouldn’t have a hope in hell of getting tickets, let alone be able to afford them!”
