CD and Promotional Sales

You will find at every musical event a CD sales point where you can purchase CD's of those artistes appearing at the festival. This is a service the Festival provides 'free' for the artistes and we hope you'll want to take home some music after your concert. Also on sale you can purchase our Festival on the Moor 'Singing Sheep' T-Shirts at £7.50 - we're sure, should you decide to have one, that you'll not feel you've been 'fleeced'. You'll not feel right going to the Baa without one.
