BoomTown Fair, the immersive, theatrical and artistic festival with an on going narrative for around 45,000 festivalgoers which takes place at Matterley Estate, nr. Winchester, in Hampshire and will run from Thursday 13th until Sunday 16th August 2015 is offering a limited amount of Sunrise ticket holders the opportunity to swap their Sunrise tickets and an additional £10 on top of a full price Sunrise ticket

The 10th Sunrise Celebration due to happen at Piercefield Park, Chepstow over the bank holiday weekend from Thursday 21st to Sunday 24th May was cancelled last week unworkable noise restrictions meant organisers were unable hold the event.

Sunrise organiser's have announced, "What a few days these have been, for everyone concerned and we thank you for your patience with us as we sort through all the messages we've received. All is not lost though. In the midst of the devastation we have been talking to some of the other independent festivals who have rallied behind us to offer us their support and ticket swaps and we are delighted to announce that the most exciting of these has come from our talks with Boomtown.

"We are looking to create a new woodland meadow Sunrise zone within their festival. We share a lot of culture and roots so this feels like the perfect opportunity to combine the magic and keep our annual summer gathering. Nothing is set in stone but we are all working extremely hard to make something very special happen!!! 

"Boomtown, being the large scale production that it is, naturally holds a higher ticket price but together, with both of our determination to make this work and keep the Sunrise spirit alive, we have come up with a solution and for an extra £10 on top of a full price Sunrise ticket we can offer a limited amount of Sunrise ticket holders the opportunity to swap your ticket for a full on Sunrise meets BoomTown experience in August.

"We WILL be at BoomTown in some capacity but the scale of our presence will be reflected by how many Sunrise people want to join us. We'd love you to take this offer up and make the end of the summer a Sunrise gathering to remember!"

Sunrise's presence at BoomTown will depend upon the amount of people taking up the offer.

Those Sunrise Celebration ticket holders wanting to swap their tickets should go to Bristol ticket Shop (here).
