The dates for 2008 are confirmed as Friday 11th and Saturday 12th July, with the beer tent open along with the acoustic marquee on the Friday.
The event is staged on open fields on the north edge of Dartmoor with panoramic views of the surrounding area. There will be a main stage, a performance marquee and other entertainment, including a Pirate Ship for kids, Stilt Walkers and Face Painters etc around the site.
The idea behind the festival is to give some local bands the opportunity to play at such an event as well as booking well known acts. It will be a mixture of styles from Rock to Drum & Bass to Folk and Blues plus whatever else they can find. They'll be a main stage, plus acts performing in a marquee between main stage acts.
Confirmed acts include: Hothouse Flowers, Thea Gilmore, Ella Edmondson, The Fireblockers, Chasing Faces, The Great Escape, No Crisis, Show of Hands, The Radars, Nicky Swan, Dan Raza, Nick & Liesl, Madrum, Bettina Flater, and Charlie Ansell. For the up-to-date details (as available) click here.
Numbers will be limited to 3,000 to provide a fun but chilled atmosphere in a cosy, relaxed venue for all age groups.
Camping will be separate from parking and the usual festival rules will apply (no pets, campfires, fireworks etc). There are facilities available such as toilets, water, first aid etc.
There will be a licensed beer tent and catering of various sorts on site. You will therefore be unable to bring your own alcohol or food into the main arena area.
