The first Torbay Busking Festival, organised by 2nd year Foundation Degree Student Vicky Nagy, is taking takes place in Paignton town centre on April 28th and Torquay town centre on April 29.
Organiser Vicky Nagy said: "There will be a lot of variation. We have a variety of
Guitarists, singers, dancers, a drama group and a magician." The artists will be based in the town centre and entertain the passers-by throughout the day.
The event is being organised with the assistance of the Torbay Town Centres Company. Ian Broadfoot, chief executive of the company, said: "The aim of the festival is to bring something fun, unique and special to Torbay, helping to create a vibrant atmosphere and bring the community together." Vicky added: "The standard of entertainment chosen for the festival will be very good. It is exciting to be able to bring something so vibrant to the Bay. We want Torbay to be known as a creative hub of the South West, and this will be a good opportunity to do just that."
