The Chard Festival of Women in Music, a six-day biennial event held in May, was established in 1990 in order to showcase music composed and performed by women. The Hotbed event, held on alternate years, was developed as a creative symposium for composers and songwriters. The Chard Foundation of Women in Music was established in 2002. As of 2019, the festival has not been held for several years.
