Status Quo have been confirmed as the Sunday headliner for Guilfest, which takes place at Stoke Park, Guilford from Friday 15th until Sunday 17th July.

They join Paul Weller, the only other act confirmed so far, who is headlining the Saturday. More acts will be announced in around a week.

Both Weller and Rick Parfitt, who along with Francis Rossi was in Quo's original line-up, are local boys from neighbouring Woking, as is the festival's organiser Tony Scott.

"It's going to be quite a line-up," said Tony, who has been organising the festival in its many guises since 1992. "This year is going to be bigger and better than ever and will confirm Guilfest’s reputation as the best family festival."

Tickets are on sale, priced at £75 for all three days, or £85 with camping. Day tickets cost £35 for any day. Click here to buy online.

Guilfest this year has five music stages, the Cosmic Comedy Tent, a new Tropical Bar, the Kidzone, and great markets, on a site that's been redesigned, and with a slight increase in capacity to 17,500 per day.
