I had a couple of very enjoyable years here and it is a busy little festival but according to the listing on efestivals the price for this year is already up to £140 + camper which I think last year was £30 so I am surprised it hasnt made a profit for 5 years and can see that it will be without my patronage again this year unless they come up with a headliner that is unmissable.

Well, apparently the organiser is hoping to sell half of the festival to avoid making any future losses and he's in talks with various festival types - let's hope it's not that mean fiddler lot! I'm also hoping it's not going to change too much because it has got a nice vibe to it with no hassle etc.

I love the vibe of Cornbury so really hope it doesn't change with the advent of a partner. Mind you they've done pretty well up till now and, apart from the first year and last, always seem to come up with great weather too.

I'm going anyway as I managed to get one of the early bird tickets before Christmas at reduced prices- don't really mind who the line up is although somebody as good as Nick Lowe was last year will make me happy

expect James Morrison, The Pretenders, Fleet Foxes and Scouting for Girls.

Sorry to moan

Shame really.

Ticket prices for kids at £45.00 when they are 6 + £20.00 each for them to camp !!

OK - I know there are some concessions for under 12's available at the moment - but this is extortionate !

Think the organisers have got this dreadfully wrong
