Charity partners at Devon’s biggest ever live music event have raised more than more than £40,000 thanks to generous festival goers who attended the four night event earlier this summer.
Live At Powderham saw 140,000 visitors head to the historic castle’s grounds for four huge shows headlined by Teddy Swims, Alanis Morissette and Lewis Capaldi.
And it has now revealed the festival’s four charity partners – RNLI Teignmouth, Rowcroft Hospice, Exeter Chiefs Foundation and RMA – The Royal Marines Charity – raised a combined total of £40,723 through collections at the shows.
The amount raised by the individual charities over the four nights was: RNLI Teignmouth £6,383, Rowcroft Hospice £14,644 , Exeter Chiefs Foundation £8,653 and The Royal Marines Charity £11,043 .
Live At Powderham was organised by Live Nation promoters Cuffe and Taylor known for curating world-class events in unique locations.
Co-founder Peter Taylor said: “We were delighted to welcome four charity partners to Live At Powderham this year – each one carrying out very different work in the south Devon community, and we thank them for joining us.
“We also must say a huge thank you to all our festival goers who supported the charities so generously helping them raise an absolutely fantastic amount of money, where every penny raised will now be used to support local people and organisations.”
Following an application process, the charities were each allocated their own headline night for volunteers to collect donations from festival goers. Volunteers from RNLI Teignmouth attended the opening night with Teddy Swims, Rowcroft Hospice were at Alanis Morissette’s show and Exeter Chiefs Foundation and The Royal Marines Charity benefitted respectively from Lewis Capaldi’s two shows.
Live At Powderham is set to return in 2027 running from June 24 to 27. Early bird four-day passes on sale now at www.liveatpowderham.com and www.ticketmaster.co.uk
