Oxjam is a music festival with a difference. Throughout October, volunteers organise hundreds of music events, of all types and genres, across the UK. Since 2006, these events have raised more than £2 million for Oxfam.
The centre-piece of the festival is the Oxjam Takeover – up to 60 multi-venue events happening in towns and cities across the UK, all on one weekend in October. Each event includes up to 8 venues. Some will have over 100 bands performing, showcasing the very best of local talent.

Oxjam Torquay Takeover in 2012 created a series of small lead up events and then, in October, put on 57 bands in 12 hours across 5 venues.

We aim to make 2013's event even better.

With the national marketing campaign and press coverage generated by the Oxjam Central team, the local music scene gets to be in the spotlight.
