Alternative Sunday: an eclectic mix of music and dance featuring bands and solo performers from a wide range of musical genres including Samboomba, The Wah, Mother Black Cap, Skin The Fish, Judi Willson, The Marvelous, Cottonhouse, Something Happened, Caomhe, Caution Horses, and Friendly Misunderstood.

An adult weekend ticket is priced at £20, Friday or Saturday day tickets are priced at £10, and Sunday day tickets £5, children under 12 can attend for free. To buy tickets, click here.
