Selston Music Festival began as a non-competitive music festival in 1942. It attracted widespread interest in that year and also the following year and the enthusiasm with which the Festival was received encouraged the founder members of the committee to begin a competitive festival in 1944. In that year the competitive festival did not take the place of the non-competitive festival. Both festivals received widespread support until 1946 after which time only the competitive festival was held.
