Choral singers from all over Cornwall are coming together for a musical festival which will no doubt be well attended by families staying at Cornwall B&Bs.

A full size orchestra of 270 singers will perform at the week-long Killiow 2008 festival which is due to take place at the start of September close to the Cornish town of Truro.

Both professional and amateur singers will come together to form the choir.

This will be the county's first Eisteddfod-style festival, which is a Welsh celebration of music and poetry that has roots dating back to the 12th century.

Hayley Westenra and Alfie Boe will headline the event, along with the Camellia Symphony Chorus and Killiow Festival Symphony Orchestra.

They will perform in a huge pink marquee to be erected on the Killiow estate during September 2nd to 6th.

All the money raised from ticket sales will go directly to charity, which will make it a enjoyable and ethically sound attraction for guests staying at a Cornwall B&B.
