A very merry Christmas from Cheltenham Festivals...

A Very Merry Christmas from Cheltenham Festivals...

'Tis just weeks before Christmas, and here at Cheltenham Festivals we're beginning to feel distinctly, well, Festive! To celebrate this jolliest of seasons we asked the stars of this year's Literature Festival to share with us a special Christmas Memory.

Every day of advent we'll be unwrapping a different Christmas Memory for your delight and delectation. And as an extra-special treat, every Festive-Friday we'll be hearing from our Festival Directors and giving away Festive-al prizes galore!

So sit back, grab a mince pie and unwrap a very special Festive-al memory...

13th December: Jazzing around the Christmas Tree...

It's the season for meeting up with old friends and listening to great music, so to celebrate we've got a Jazz Festival treat in today's advent stocking...

As well as a Festive-al goody bag, today's prize package includes three inspiring jazz CDs. Identify our mystery star for the chance to win CDs by British jazz stars the Portico Quartet, Norwegian quintet Farmers Market and jazz pianist Tord Gustavsen. 



Today’s mystery star is one of the nation's favourite personalities with a real passion for jazz. We asked him what makes Cheltenham Jazz Festival so great, press play below to hear his answer…

The competition is now closed.

UPDATE: the mystery festive-al star was... Michael Parkinson! Congratulations if you got it right.
