Stortford Music Festival is a community interest company and as such is a not for profit organisation which relies on volunteers to run the event at all levels from directors to helpers on the day.[1] The festival, which until 2006 was known as "Woodworks" [2], runs over the may bank holiday weekend each year and features various local and unsigned artists as well as a handful of well known headliners.
