Guess we should be some headliners and band release very soon, think Wychwood does lose out on early bird ticket sales but not drip feeding band announcements through the autumn. Both Mello and Sunshine (same organisers) have a band signed for next year at the time of each festival and then regular social media releases keeping the event bubbling along.
-
I just can’t find it on the drop down festival finder and didn’t think that that was year specific. My mistake in that case
-
Any reason why Wychwood does not appear on the festival list on efestivals anymore ? I’m sure efestivals we’re a sponsor ??
-
I love Wychwood and whilst it was lacking musically this year, It was still great, the dance tent worked well.
We did miss a reef, wonder stuff, from the jam etc. mid day programme but it made us go and check out the other tents and who knows if we have seen the next wolf alice or rag and bone man !?
We did hear from someone on site that losing One if there benefactors, Dave, had an effect and means they really have to make money this year since they have always lost money, hence the righting of band budget and smaller tent venues. Was told the stranglers cost £36k !!! But Toyah loved it last year so much she did it for £800 expenses this year. It’s got to be hard finding the right bands for the right money.

Grumpyhack sums it up ! And if you only got crap to say keep it to yourself. Good luck to Watchet and all the other festivals but for us as a family Wychwood ticks all the boxes and then sum.
Best family weekend of the year. Thanks to everyone who work so hard to put it together they deserve a pat on th back not a muppet just trying to make noise and sound clever.

Saturday headliner ?????? They have a gap in there racecourse tour Wychwood weekend !!
Anybody got an idea when the next lot of announcements are due
-
Recently be doing Mello & Sunshine etc. and whilst Wychwood may appear to be more expensive, we’re on ticket for life so on a personal level they it’s not, you do get a lot more bang for your buck.
-
Happy days and Wychwood is a level above most of the smaller festivals, worth every penny, in my opinion !
You cant compare it with the likes of Mello etc. Strong regular following if it wasn’t good value you wouldn’t see the same faces year in year out, that people always come back says everything
-
Anybody know when we can expect to be given first headliners ? It looks like they are running late again this year
-
Gonna try a couple of others this year, Mello the week before and Sunshine over August bank holiday, both so much cheaper since kids are free under twelve ! And line ups as strong if not a little more middle of road. Love Wychwood but time to see how it compares, so much more choice in small festivals these days
-
Eclectic and crazy as usual can’t fault it will be fun just hope Dexter Dury remembers the family don’t mind the odd word but see you next Tuesday in a song ain’t great!!
-
Just looking at touring bands and Dan Reed in country Wychwood weekend, that would be a wicked fit
-
Another month nearly passed by, if they have two headliners confirmed I’m confused to why they are holding back people make choices on what festivals they are going too, and I can’t help feel Wychwood are missing out sales
-
Would expected to have heard something about headliners by now, their missing out on Christmas gift market, which as a ticket for life worry’s me a little, anyone heard anything so we know if 2018 is 100% on ? 2017 did seem a little of a backward step, love Wychwood and just any to know it will be there next year
-
Spot on grumpy hack, as usual excellent weekend but nothing outstanding. Cabbage were good and bassist was in old dlr skyscraper t shirt, that took me back.
did seem a bit quieter, except for the Sunday evening where more people than ever stayed for levellers.
Stalls and other stuff was a bit thin, it does make you worry about it's longevity just hope Graham and team can keep it up, it's our favourite weekend of year. Love the location love the music love the people.
-
Having Craig strut his stuff is as much the Wychwood thing as Sam Sam the Bubble man !!!
Come on Stefen and crew sort it out, he is in Cardiff on The Friday. Ugh this so he is local enough !
(ohhh and have ever thought of getting the bubble man to strut his stuff in the big top?)
-
Any news on location this year? Will it still fit??
-
With a family Wychwood is the perfect weekend, just wish there was more than one a year ! Can anyone recommend another festival that suits kids as well? Been looking at boom town but think it's probably too big and a little too houses garages type stuff for us, Madness / Ziggy and Wurzuls mind!
-
Yeah wychwood great for kids been doing it with family for last five years, there probably not old enough for that yet, now I'm old school Donnington so sounds very real
-
What is steel house like? Think Thunder played there last year or a couple of years ago, is it as kid friends wychwood?
-
Excellent !!!
Levellers great for a Sunday and OMD on Sat night has to be seen as a proper coup. Can't wait gonna be brill. Some proper ninety and eighty's pop.
just need The beat / Craig Charles and May be a bit of rock, Quireboys???
-
Grass looks in much better Nick, see what it's like Monday !

Well grump hack should be able to put us out of the misery look out the window!! Where is the big top?

in Wychwood Music Festival
Posted
Not the same organisers, my message was sunshine and mello are same organisers and comparing them to tribe (Wychwood) which is far more rounded festival and not just music and beer, which the two tend to be. But SC certainly have a much stronger social media presence all year round
