From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Great Waters Music Festival (GWMF) is an annual summer music festival held in Wolfeboro, New Hampshire, United States, two hours north of Boston.[1] The festival was founded in 1995 to promote live musical performances of outstanding amateur and professional musicians. It consists of a wide range of musical performances including choral, symphonic, folk, pops, jazz, Broadway, and dance. Since the first festival, which attracted 325 attendees, it has grown to an audience of over 7,000 over its eight-week concert schedule. While originally concerts were held in a large white tent, the venue moved in 2011 to the newly built Kingswood Arts Center, an air-conditioned facility which seats nearly 1,000.[2]
