Milford on Sea Music Festival:

Brand identity social media, programme, photography, signage, banners and Tshirts

From concept to execution, I developed the complete festival identity — encompassing photography, website design, T-shirts, signage, and every visual touchpoint. With John Illsley of Dire Straits attending, the challenge was clear: make every element visually compelling. The result? A bold, vibrant festival brand that captured attention, drove record-breaking programme sales, and attracted 5,000 attendees on Sunday alone.


Brand Identity
The festival brand needed to reflect both the magic of Milford on Sea and the energy of live music. We combined the serene blues of sea and sand with the bright, dynamic tones of stage lighting to create a visually striking identity.


Programme Design
Collaborating with writer Joe Muggs, we produced a 52-page A5 programme printed on sustainable uncoated paper with a velvet-touch laminated cover. The programme highlighted the festival lineup, events, and the story behind the festival, balancing functionality with premium design.
