Commenting on all that, da Bank, as both panellist and AIF co-founder, told reporters: “As the hour rapidly approaches, all at AIF are absolutely buzzing about the Congress. These latest announcements show that we’re bringing the cream of the independent festival world together in Cardiff. The stage is set for an excellent conference and we’ll be celebrating a big season that has seen more sold-out AIF festivals than ever before”.
