The dates are confirmed as Friday 15th to Sunday 17th July.

This is one of eFestivals favourite festivals, with a lovely friendly and laid-back vibe. Unlike some other festivals, you can immediately feel that this festival is being run to give everyone a great time, rather than to get rich quick!

Most acts are now confirmed, with headliners of The Pogues (with original line-up) on the Friday, Paul Weller on the Saturday, and Status Quo on the Sunday, plus loads more also confirmed across the weekend - click here for the details.

The line-up on the main two stages is classic and modern acts of the type you might hear on Radio 2 (who sponsor the main stage). The acts are always quality, so there's more enjoyment to be got from the bands than you might expect.

As well as the BBC Radio 2 Main Stage, there's the Uncut Magazine Stage, two stages featuring new and unsigned bands, a new Rockzone Cave, the Funky End Tent, the Cosmic Comedy Tent (sponsored again by eFestivals), the KidZone to keep the little ones entertained, great markets, and more.

The music starts at around 5pm on the Friday, and noon on Saturday and Sunday. Music finishes at 11pm on Friday and Saturday, with an earlier 9:30pm finish on Sunday.

Tickets are on sale, priced at £75 for the weekend (all three days), or £85 with camping. Campervans cost an extra £50. Under-12's go free (with a ticket-holding adult), and under-16's are £20 for any day, £40 for the weekend, or £50 for the weekend with camping.

Guilfest has worked hard to improve accessability for all, and has a new area for camping for visitors with disabilities and their families and friends, on top of it already having gentle inclines and short-cut grass - making it easy to access by those with mobility disabilities.

More information will be here when available.
