Significant events
- “The 2024 production of The Magic Flute was directed by Melly Still, conducted by Finnegan Downie Dear, and performed in partnership with the Britten Sinfonia. It received strong critical acclaim, including a four-star review from The Times, and was warmly received by audiences.”
- “The world premiere of a new opera, The Devil's Den, performed by Shadwell Opera”
- “On the final Thursday of the festival, the entire site was animated by performances from students of the David Ross Education Trust academies.”
- “The inclusion of Darbar's Indian classical music performances and the live poetry events allowed audiences to engage with lesser-known international genres and less accessible art forms”
- “A major highlight of the education programme saw Year 5 students from David Ross Education Trust academies perform Hansel and Gretel”
- “the festival was proud to offer many free and subsidised tickets to under-18s and to members of the tailored under-35s membership programme”
- “In January 2024, the Charity's trading subsidiary changed its name by special resolution from Nevill Holt Opera Limited to Nevill Holt Festival Limited.”
- “With the 2025 festival now concluded, planning for 2026 and beyond is well underway. The 2026 festival is scheduled to take place from 29 May to 21 June 2026”

Each % is (latest − prior) ÷ |prior| for the line item as filed. The comparison is only shown when the latest and prior accounts cover broadly equal-length periods — short or long stubs (typical around incorporation or a year-end change) are suppressed rather than misrepresented. Lines a company doesn't report are omitted. About these numbers
