So-called because bands originally used two trucks put together as the main stage, this festival first took place in 1998.

There are three stages including a main stage, 'Barn' stage (presumably for dance) and acoustic stage alongside food stalls, market and bars.

Camping is within a stone's throw of the action.

There's plenty of input and support from local people and the organisers hope this uncommercial event will raise plenty of money for good causes. The food is said to be cheap and served with a smile by the Rotary Club, the beer (said to cheap, also) and poured by men dressed as ladies, There is also the real ale in the Codgers Bar and ice cream flogged by the local vicar in aid of the church light fund. This year the Kids' Area will be enlarged too.
