The Black Horse Festival - CANCELLED 2010


THIS EVENT HAS BEEN CANCELLED.
The Black Horse Festival has been cancelled. Rother District Council has not granted the event a licence. Festival ticket holders are asked to contact their point of sale.

====================
Celebrating its 22nd birthday this annual small festival often featuring renowned world musicians, has moved from the grounds of The Black Horse public house to a new location Pestalozzi International Village in Sedlescombe, East Sussex.

The festival offers blues, folk, and world music over May bank holiday weekend from Friday 28th until Monday 31st May.

Line-up

The linee-up includes Ade Edmondson & the Bad Shepherd's, Baka Beyond, King King (who are causing a major stir in the Blues scene) and from Chicago, Steve Arvey, with more to come. The full line up will be released in the next couple of weeks.

Tickets

Early bird tickets are on sale (until 1st April) priced at £50 for a weekend ticket (full price £60), a young person weekend ticket (aged 10 - 17 years) is priced at £25 (full price £30). Day tickets are priced at £20, half price for young people (aged 10 - 17 years).

The concept will not change, still keeping the usual respected line-up of Blues, Folk, World and the favourite party night, but now there will be an additional acoustic stage. Both stages will supply live music all day and there will be no break between afternoon and evening.

Facilities

Pestalozzi International Village is able to offer the full festival experience on a relaxed family-friendly safe site where we can provide camping, bed and breakfast, craft stalls, a bar and good food.

Charities

Collections are made for one or more selected charities.

More information will be here when available.
