The Portsmouth Music Festival was founded in 1917 in an attempt to improve the quality of life for Portsmouth citizens.
Since the Second World War it has continued to go from strength to strength.
Currently, the festival hosts over 4,000 performances from people in the community who enjoy making music, dancing and/or acting. Almost all are amateurs who wish to give pleasure by their performance and to learn from the adjudicators and others. It is the largest annual community event staged in Portsmouth. There is no pressure to pass exams, but the preparation teaches discipline, teamwork and communications skills – all of which have a positive effect on the lives of the participants.
