The pair have previously performed at the Proms events and have said they are excited to return after missing the 2024 programme due to COVID.

Charlotte Haines, the festival chair, said: "It costs £30,000 plus to put on the two week Proms music program and myself and the committee work hard to make it as successful and as inclusive as possible, with next year being its 27th year of taking place."

The festival is an annual event that has been running for 27 years.

It is a two-week programme that features a variety of musical performances.

The festival is a popular event in the community and attracts visitors from across the country.
