AIYF

Recommended Posts

AIYF takes over Lemon Tree for two weeks of new music and theatre!

The recently reopened Lemon Tree is to become the home of the Aberdeen International Youth Festival for the duration of the 2008 event.

The Lemon Tree will become the Festival Hub, a location at the heart of the city at which festival goers can have lunch, see shows, buy tickets and find out about what the festival has to offer.

Festival director Stewart Aitken said: The reopening of the Lemon Tree has come at a great time for us and provided us with a focal point for the festival. It gives us the opportunity to create a place where people can come after the main concerts and see a wide range of music as well as giving us a great space to showcase some innovative and exciting theatre by young people. Hopefully our presence at the Lemon Tree will attract new audiences to AIYF as well as enable our core support to try something a bit different

For the first time AIYF, in partnership with Foyer Music, will be holding late night sessions - Laterat the Lemon Tree.

Laterat the Lemon tree willrun from Thursday July 31 and the late night festival sessions will showcase the best of up and coming, home-grown and international talent.
