WOMAD

"Ravi Shankar was a master of his instrument. He opened the door to non-western music for millions of people around the world, and inspired musicians to look beyond their own culture. He was very serious about his music, and I remember at one WOMAD performance, he stopped the music to ask his audience not to point their feet at him as that was seen as offensive in India. He was also warm, witty and mischievous as a man. He will be badly missed."
-Peter Gabriel.

Wow. Folks the Early Birds are going crazy. Just a little warning, y'know.

Yesterday, Monday 19th November, we announced that WOMAD will be embarking on a new adventure with a WOMAD Russia in North Caucasus.

Come September 2013 WOMAD will have flags fluttering in the breeze ready to introduce a Russian audience to the international delights of WOMAD- music and musicians unheard of, a vast selection of global foods and dishes, workshops inviting the audience to ask questions, dance with the artists and learn a new musical instrument. And, of course, so much more.

The WOMAD Early bird offer has been extended to the WOMAD spa weekend tickets!

Get your bubbling Jacuzzis and relaxing saunas at a luxuriously discounted price. These fellas are very limited so buy quickly to avoid disappointment!

(Early bird tickets go on sale on Friday 23rd November- a week today!)
