The Wombats, Judge Jules, Tall Paul, Tim Westwood, and Micky Slim have been announced as the headline acts for this year's three weekend The Big Reunion.

The Wombats
As well as the headlining acts there will be support from The Holloways, Utah Saints, Trip, and Mary Anne Hobbs.

With the two events in 2008 selling out two months in advance, the organizers have announced that this year's Big Reunion will now be held over three weekends and not the usual two! The three events whose home is Butlins Entertainment Complex, in Skegness will this year take place over the following weekends:
Weekend 1: 20th – 22nd November 2009
Weekend 2: 27th - 29th November 2009
Weekend 3: 4th – 6th December 2009

As well as the acts more promoters have been announced for the line-up, they include Godskitchen, Cream Classics, Hed Kandi, and XFM Remix. They join the regular promoters who include Judgement Sundays, Twice as Nice, Kissdafunk, Trinity, Essential Grooves, and Rewind. Acts appearing also include Anne Savage, Lisa Lashes, Eddie Temple Morris and loads more.

Ian Kaye, General Manager of UK Events & Overseas at The Big Reunion, said, "After the success of last year's event there was clear demand to offer an extra weekend. By adding promoters such as Godskitchen, Cream Classics, Hed Kandi and XFM Remix means this year's event will be bigger and better than ever."

"We're continuing with our winning formula of mashing together as many musical styles as possible with a twisted sense of fun and frolics. Where else can you enjoy an afternoon of Silent Disco and wrestling and then see The Wombats, Tim Westwood, Judge Jules and Chico in the same night?"

There will be six arenas kitted out in state of the art sound and light, featuring hand-picked and famous acts, DJs, 48 hours of music, visuals and interaction from 12 promoters from the dance, urban and indie scene and over 60 live acts.

The facilities available on site are supermarket, splash pool, sauna, hydro spar, medical center, Burger King, pizza restaurant, take-away, 3 cash machines, Ladbrokes, Odeon cinema, ten pin bowling, and many other sports bars and restaurants.

Tickets this year are priced at £159 with accommodation. The price includes two nights on site accommodation sleeping two-six people, access to all the venue's facilities and a wristband allowing unlimited access to all six arenas for the entire weekend. To buy tickets click here.
