Oxjam is a festival with a difference: hundreds of fundraising music events are put on by ordinary people – from large-scale festivals to local sponsored busks – making it the biggest line-up of any music festival in the country.

The highlight of the month-long festival will be the Oxjam Takeover on Sunday 25 October, when more than 2,000 musicians will fill over 150 venues in more than 20 cities in a single day to raise funds for Oxfam. Exeter is no exception this year, with a one day event taking place across 5 venues.

Whether you sing, scratch or strum, you’ll be joining some of the best names in music in the Oxjam line-up so get in touch with us today and join what will hopefully be one of the best gigs Exeter has ever seen

This year the festival will be helping poor people cope with the devastating effects of climate change. As well as raising hundreds of thousands of pounds for Oxfam’s work, gig goers will be painting their faces blue as part of a massive visual statement to the UK government to take action on climate change before it’s too late. Around
50,000 festival-goers are estimated to have signed up to Oxfam’s blue faces campaign already this year, from Glastonbury to Reading and Leeds.

GO BLUE IN THE FACE AND ASK THE GOVERNMENT TO TAKE ACTION. GET INVOLVED
