About the Festival

---

The Kineton Music Festival is the brain child of Kineton villager Clive Rickman, who wanted to combine his love of music with raising money for local charitable causes.

Initially inspired by the Veterans Football Team who play at Kineton Sports and Social Club (KSSC) the objectives of the Festival are: to promote a family friendly music festival, that also provides a venue for local musical talent to perform and entertain while we raise much needed money; In 2019 we are working with the Warwickshire & Northamptonshire Air Ambulance, Dogs for Good and The Shakespeare Hospice.

Profits from ticket sales will be split equally between these organisations, with KMF retaining 20% for  funding the following year's event .

We were bowled over with the huge year-on-year increases since our first year in 2013, but this unique event is only possible through the generous support of our local and corporate sponsors, who cover the majority of the festival’s running costs.  They have been very supportive over the years and we are very grateful to them and the large number of volunteers who give their time before, during and after the event.

Our
​Community
​Charities

Our primary local charities for 2019 are The Warwickshire & Northamptonshire Air Ambulance, The Shakespeare Hospice and Dogs for Good. 
​
We believe that the work of these excellent organisations is essential to our local community, so it is with great pleasure that we have been able, with your help, to hand over £52,000 from proceeds of KMF since it's inception.

We retain 20% of profit to ensure the long-term viability of KMF and continue to secure future fund-raising opportunities for charity, meaning we donate 80% of profits from ticket sales equally between each charity.
