Renowned for the quality and breadth of bands and musicians taking part and for the family friendly atmosphere, AMF has rightly earned an enviable reputation for being THE festival to be seen and play at early summer.

Alresford Music Festival 2018
2018 will be the ninth AMF and is on a not-for-profit basis, organised entirely by local volunteers and money raised is given to charity. To date over £35,000 has been raised and shared with deserving good causes, community organisations and through its registered charity The AMF Foundation; music based charities… and that is particularly why the festival is so special to the Alresford and surrounding community.
