Coronavirus Update on this year's Wharfedale Festival Piano classes to be held in October 2020.

The committee is hoping that this year's Piano Festival will be able to go ahead, subject to Government guidelines and the Health and Safety of competitors, judges, and visitors but the final decision to go ahead will be made at the end of July.

Please keep an eye on the website for news of any decision made at that time.

Thank you.

Message from Ivy Wales, the organiser of the Wharfedale Festival of Performing Arts Dance Championship, dated 28th March 2020.

It is with great sadness and regrets that I am no longer able to lead the WFPA Dance Championship due to ill health. My small committee team also decided to step down at the same time.

I would like to thank everyone for their help and support these last few years. It is very much appreciated.
