The NOVA Festival was set up in 2021 by Joseph Barker as a way of giving back to the town that raised him, championing young Cornish talent and contributing to the cultural landscape of St Austell.
The 2021 festival was a huge success and a heart warming experience - as much for the musicians as for the audience members as well.
In 2022 the festival is expanding slightly, building on the success of last year, with 3 concerts and more musicians.
