Planning for St Ives September Festival 2015 is moving ahead - with the music programme for St Ives Guildhall nearing completion.

  • Show Of Hands
  • Miranda Sykes and Rex Preston
  • Dervish
  • Kate Rusby
  • The Acoustic Strawbs
  • John Lees' Barclay James Harvest
  • Chris Jagger and the Kronies
  • Martin Barre Band
  • The Rollin' Clones
  • The Beat

At least a couple more gigs will be added in the coming days.
