In addition there are many smaller one hour concerts/Meet the Artist events, as well as the usual Dance Festival, Children's Festival, Craft Fayre, Workshops, Singarounds and so on.

Camping is available on a small campsite adjacent to the village at a small extra charge for weekend ticket holders or individual concert ticket holders only.
