Mar 05 – M.O Productions Members Receive Awards

Members of M.O. Productions have recently received awards from the British International Federation of Festivals for Music, Dance and Speech for giving over 10 years voluntary service to the Festival Movement.

The Awards Scheme for Festival Voluntary Helpers under the British Federation acknowledges members’ voluntary contribution to community festivals and, in local terms, the annual Gibraltar International Dance Festival.

The Gibraltar Festival has been active for over a decade providing educational opportunities to Gibraltar’s youth through its local event and also, internationally, with the twinning of both the local festival and the Sussex Festival for Dance & Song. The festival also plays an important role in keeping alive local interest in the arts and allowing young people to receive imminent advise from professionals.

The Awards have been presented to the following recipients: 

  • Seamus Byrne
  • Alfred Rumbo
  • Robert Balban
  • Lawrence Robles
  • Zaskia Byrne

Chairman of M.O. Productions, Seamus Byrne said:

‘We are delighted to be recognised by such a prestigious organisation in the United Kingdom whose patron is Her Majesty the Queen. We have been producing the annual festival voluntarily for over 13 years and look forward to organising many more festivals for many more years to come.’
