Memories please...

We want your memories of the past 30 years of WOMAD, whether they are memories from the very first or most recent WOMAD festival, national or international. They may be funny or sombre, anecdotes or simple observations, tales of volunteering or snippets from the crowd, artist performances or workshops, taste the world sessions or a giggle with your gaggle. What has stuck with you from your WOMAD experiences?

These gloriously glowing memories will be collected and added to our 30th anniversary website page where you will be able to reminisce to your hearts content. The very best memories will be included in our souvenir programme for WOMAD UK 2012.

Send your WOMAD recollections now. In exchange, we will send you a warm fuzzy feeling.

What can you send to us and how?
