eFestivals can exclusively reveal that Endorse-It In-Dorset has stepped in to offer those who had bought tickets to Big Green Gathering an alternative at a special discounted rate.

Around the site
In support of the ticket holders of The Big Green Gathering, who have lost out on this week's festivities, The Endorse-It In-Dorset Festival has developed a package to try to help.

Both festivals share a lot of the same attendees, both coming from a none corporate, old school festival ideal, and so the Dorset festival has come up with the following offer:

BGG Ticket holders can turn up on the Friday and purchase tickets on the gate, at a reduced price of:

£50 for an adult weekend ticket
£15 for a 10-15 yr old
£5 for under 10's

Ticket holders MUST bring their BGG wristband to the gate as these are the only accepted proof of purchase. The exchange will be issued at the box office on a first come, first served basis.

Please ring 0792 0843448 for updates on ticket availability if you are travelling a long way on the day. The phone number given will only be available from 06/08/09 the day before the festival, to give up dates on ticket availability.

Endorse-It In-Dorset held from Friday 7th to Sunday 9th August has a line-up that includes a mixture of ska, dub, punk and more. The confirmed acts include headliners Dreadzone, and Pama International, plus Pronghorn, Zion Train, Sham 69, Attila the Stockbroker, Inner Terrestrials, The Powersteppers feat Molara, Tofu Love Frogs, SixNationState, The Highliners, Farmageddon, Toupe, Flipron, Eat Static, Cash Converted, Subgiant, Guns of Navarone, Hobo Jones & TJD, The Boot Hill All Stars, Cracked Actors, Who's Afear'd, Tragic Roundabout, Port Erin, The Lucky Sevens, Monkeyrush (featuring Fil Planet), and DJ Dapper Dan & The Macassa Man.

This old school type of festival also has a great kids area, plus late night entertainment, comedy, food, beer, stalls, family camping area, healing area, chill-out area - all the usual.

eFestivals is pleased to again sponsor Endorse-It In-Dorset. This is part of eFestivals' commitment to put 10% of our turnover back into festivals, making festivals better for us all.

eFestivals is also aware that organisers of the Stokes Bay Festival this coming weekend are offering half-price admission to anyone who bought Big Green Gathering tickets.

The Stokes Bay Festival takes place from Wednesday 29 July to Sunday 3 August at Stokes Bay in Hampshire and features The Zutons; The Proclaimers; Seth Lakeman and The Saw Doctors plus The Groovy Movie solar-powered cinema, EA Hub, storytelling, street theatre and childrens entertainers.

Anyone wishing to take advantage of the half-price offer should bring their Big Green Gathering ticket with them and pay on the gate at Stokes Bay.
