-
permanent Caravan Club camp site if you want to use it
-
bell-tent camping for hire (subject to availability)
-
day parking
-
peaceful family-friendly surroundings of the huge Nene Park & Ferry Meadows site
-
just 2 miles from the A1
-
close to Peterborough city centre
-
camp site 200 metres from bus stops, 600 metres from Overton station on the Nene Valley Railway (steam train) and 600 metres from site shops, restaurant and permanent shower facilities within the boating complex

All of our tickets are now available direct from this website, just like any other festival or gig you might go to. Thanks everyone who bought the Earlybird tickets - this has enabled us to take the giant leap forward to the next phase! Book your tickets here


Arena
Your comfort matters!
-
all stages and their audience are housed within fully covered marquees
-
open sides, weather permitting, so you can sit in the sun if you wish
-
space to bring your own camping chairs into the arena (note: this is at your risk and excludes the marquees unless by agreement with us, and subject to H&S rules)
-
real-ale bar (other drinks will also be available!) and food concessions operating within the arena
-
additional benches for your use
-
just 250 metre walk from the camp site to Horse Meadow where we'll have our music arena.
Mission
We are all music lovers. The festival is all about the music and its fans - you! We aim to:
-
provide opportunities to some amazing bands that the bigger, established festivals won't touch because they have yet "made it" so won't make money for them
-
support the iconic bands from earlier years who now struggle to get gigs, many of whom are now cited as influences
-
cover the costs of the festival but we will not take any wages or salary ourselves. Any profit stays in the festival and will go towards the following year.
-
The festival is run on a not-for-profit basis. It is genuinely about the music!
