Truck festival

19-01-2010

Truck Festival is not run for profit, apart from a rolling fund retained to keep the festival site in good nick every penny made goes into supporting charities.

As well as the music, there's food stalls, a kid's area, market, Piney's Pavilion with hosts Craft Night, Panther Girls and Wedding Singalong, The Magnificent Revolutionary Cycling Cinema with bikes, and a village pub and Pub Rock Stage selling real ales.

The event is called Truck Festival because bands originally used two trucks put together as the main stage, when this festival first took place in 1998.

Founded by brothers Robin and Joe Bennett on a farm within a welly wang from their family home, Truck now attracts over 5,000 revellers each year.

In 2008 Truck added a sister event called Wood, a new festival celebrating music and nature in the surroundings of Braziers Park, Oxfordshire held in May.
