Whilst we get to the end of the clear up, can we give another huge thanks to Tim Blowers who enabled us (with county council permission) parking for up to 60 vehicles at the Old Fromus in Seaman Avenue for the festival. The green was in a state and needed a full grass cut by a professional machinery. Thanks to Tim Blowers and his company C.J. Blowers

With all this local help, it makes Sax Fest very special. x

A massive thank you to LeBris Beauty- Beyond beautiful for joining us at Sax Fest and bringing such a wonderful selection of wellness offerings to the festival.

It was fantastic to see so many people taking the opportunity to slow down, relax and enjoy some well-deserved self-care. LeBris also offered classes during the festival, giving people the chance to discover new ways to support their wellbeing.

We absolutely love what Joleen and team are trying to bring to our community. Their aim is to spread wellness and support, advise and guide people through struggles and trauma through their work and their own experiences.

If you’re looking for a little more self-care, relaxation or support, we definitely recommend keeping an eye on what LeBris Beauty & Wellness have coming up.

They’re also hoping to bring sound baths to Saxmundham soon and are currently looking for a suitable venue, so watch this space! 🧘‍♀️

Thank you for being part of Sax Fest and helping us make the festival about more than just music but about community, wellbeing and bringing people together.

Please give them some love and follow their journey! 💜

A Huge Thank You! ❤️

We would like to say a very special thank you to Chris Bayfield owner of Bayfield Digital for going above and beyond to support SaxFest.

At a time when there was a lot to organise and equipment needed, Chris offered full free support in supplying Television screens for advertising in the bar marquee, using his own time completely voluntarily.

It is exactly this kind of community spirit that helps make SaxFest possible. Chris also supplied our Starlink wi-fi services for our contactless set up as a reduced price.

SaxFest is built on the generosity of local people, businesses and volunteers, and we really appreciate the time, effort and practical help that people like Chris give to us.

Thank you, Chris Bayfield, for helping SaxFest and for being such a great supporter of our community festival.

We would like to say a very special thank you to Joe Pulford of Breheny construction for going above and beyond to support SaxFest.

At a time when there was a lot to organise and fencing required moving, erecting and bolting together, as well as returning to de-rig the whole fencing from the site, Joe allowed his staff to assist us in this process and saved an enormous amount of time, using their own vehicles, all voluntarily for Sax Fest.

It is exactly this kind of community spirit that helps make SaxFest possible.

We would like to say a very special thank you to Adrian Hardesty of Lynch Hire for going above and beyond to support SaxFest.

At a time when 150 Heras fence panels on stillages had to be moved to various areas of the memorial field, Adrian from Lynch hire came in with a telehandler and placed them in easier access for our volunteers enabling less heavy work and quicker in setting up and taking down. It saved an enormous amount of volunteer time.
