Another successful West End Festival completed!

The 13th WEF ended on Sunday 29 June after 16 days of wide variety, appreciative audiences, good media coverage and not a few drops of rain! Over 160,000 people attended the big free public events and 20,000 bought tickets for other events.

See the Director’s Report for a fuller account and our photo gallery for what you might have missed or might want to see again!

Many thanks to all our supporters including funders Glasgow City Council, Glasgow City Marketing Bureau and the Scottish Arts Council, and to our sponsors including the Hugh Fraser Foundation, the W M Mann Charitable Trust, the University of Glasgow, Corona, Oran Mor, D8, Corum, the G1 Group, the Hilton Grosvenor Hotel and individuals too many to mention.

Thanks also to the many venue owners, participants and people who put on all kinds of shows especially to make this a very good festival indeed. You know who you are!

Dates for 2009 will provisionally be Sat 12 to Sun 27 June (to be confirmed).
