THE Highbridge Festival of Arts returns to the town next month.

Once again the festival has been flooded with entrants, both regular and newcomers and schools in the area are also eager to get involved.

The festival will be held from February 27-March 8 in The Princess in Princess Street, Burnham.

The festival has been split into five sections: dance, speech and drama, vocal, instrumental and concert.

Last year marked the 60th anniversary of the popular event and organisers are hoping to make the 2008 festival even bigger and better.
