"A special event that really does stand out from the crowd." That's how Alan Sircom, editor of Hi-Fi+ described our event last year. And this year, we're expanding!

The Bath AudioFest 2012, sponsored by Cool Gales, will be held on Saturday, 26 May. We'll be open from 10 AM to 5 PM. Venue is the same as last year, the Bath & County Club, Queens Parade, Bath BA1 2NJ, just off Queen Square, right next to the big Charlotte Street car park, and steps away from the sites and shops of Bath.

Plus, we're adding a couple of large rooms in the Royal Literary and Scientific Institution, right on Queen Square, and just a very short walk from the Bath and County Club.

STOP PRESS: Frank Schröder will be joining us, demonstrating his Artemis SA-1 turntable and TA-1 tonearm. Frank, whose hand-made tonearms are considered by many to be the pinnacle of tonearm design, will also be giving a talk on turntable set-up.

The Bath AudioFest is fast becoming the high-end show in the UK, featuring brands no longer seen at the crowded "big" shows, brands like Esoteric, Sonus Faber, Aesthetix, Clearaudio, Scheu, and many others. Diverse Vinyl will again join us, with a huge selection of new vinyl for sale. No TVs, no home cinema, just high quality two-channel audio, with tea and coffee served in a very relaxed atmosphere.

Admission will be £ 3.00, with all admissions proceeds going to The Musicians' Benevolent Fund charity. Please join us!
