TESTTOWN POP UP FESTIVAL

TestTown is the UK’s biggest high street challenge. It gives innovative young people the chance to test out a business idea for real in town centre spaces. Over 400 young people aged 16-30 across the UK and Ireland entered TestTown 2014.... The five best ideas have been picked by a judging panel of business experts to come to Rhyl on Friday 27th and Saturday 28th of June to showcase their business in pop-up spaces across the town centre.

All this summer, towns across the UK will hold their own TestTown Festival. At the end of each festival, the winning team will be given £500 and a place in the Grand Final in Cambridge this autumn. The champions of each TestTown heat will once again showcase their business with the overall winner walking away with £10,000 start-up funding.

Our young entrepreneurs are counting on you to make the festival a success. By coming along and interacting with these new businesses (and even buying their goods if you like them!) you can help to make this great experience come alive.
