Music@Malling Festival appoints Kings Hill developer as corporate sponsor

Music@Malling has named Liberty Property Trust, the developers behind the Kings Hill project, as a corporate sponsor.

Founded in 2011, the Kent festival features a variety of artists in concert and outreach in historical venues in and around West Malling. The event runs each September with a number of satellite events held across the year.

The fifth annual Music@Malling Festival will run from Sunday 20th September through to Sunday 27th September.

Liberty Property Trust is sponsoring the opening concert of the 2015 Festival – an evening of music from TV and film composer Barrington Pheloung with world-renowned studio orchestra The London Metropolitan Orchestra.

Thomas Kemp, Artistic Director of Music@Malling said: “I am delighted that Music@Malling will be collaborating with Liberty Property Trust on artistic projects in one the country’s most successful new villages,

“Liberty’s commitment to developing an inspiring and aspirational place for people to live and work is underpinned by a belief in the arts as a way of enriching this environment. Music@Malling is delighted to be part of this and extend our activities to the vibrant residential and commercial communities in Kings Hill.”

Andrew Blevins, managing director of Kings Hill developer, Liberty Property Trust, said: “We believe that our commitment to developing the soft and social infrastructure of our live/work/play community is an important part of its appeal. We are very pleased to be supporting Music@Malling and delighted that the organisation is already working with local school children; we hope that association will continue to grow.”
