Live Music in Thetford Forest

The forest tour was launched in 2001 with Jools Holland and the Levellers performing at four participating Forestry Commission sites – Sherwood, Dalby, Bedgebury and Thetford. The concept was to attract major acts for a series of concerts in outstanding locations. Previous to 2001 Thetford and Westonbirt had been independently running limited but successful concert programmes. Over the years the tour has grown in stature to the extent that the Forestry Commission is now a major promoter of summer concerts and, with the addition of Delamere, Westonbirt and Cannock, Live Music events are regularly staged at seven sites.
