And now five acts have made it to eufest’s All About The Music grand finale, which will see them go head-to-head in a night of live music at the Zephyr Lounge in Leamington on Friday May 2.

Music festival travel company eufest, which is based in Leamington, has been working with the INmusic festival in Croatia and Band Crusade from Sheffied to put the competition together, which will see the winning band perform alongside the likes of The Black Keys, Pixies, Foals and MGMT at INmusic in Zaghreb in June, as part of an all-expenses paid trip to the eastern European country.
