@AngharadTudor Thanks, if you know of a venue locally that could accommodate similar numbers for a lower price please do recommend to us. Our funding is for specific elements of the event and does not cover venue hire.

@AngharadTudor Hi Angharad, thanks for your tweet, the festival had to hire the venue to host the FM at a cost, also we employ local people to curate, promote and support the festival. Our funding does not cover the cost of venue hire. We tried to keep the cost as small as possible.
