Packed full of eclectic musical talent, this year’s line-up is bigger and better than ever. Around 90 acts will set the stages alight over three splendid summer days. The extravaganza is set against a magical backdrop of tranquil water, with plenty to keep both big and little kids entertained!

Local bands including The Roving Crows, and Erica will also be keeping revellers dancing, come rain or shine!

This year, there will be a diverse range of activities to keep the little ones entertained, from kite-making to circus skills, Glamba drumming workshops, BMX skills and even some walk-about dragons and story-telling, as well as the water sports that are available on-site.
