Headlining this year’s festival are the wonderful Merry Hell, they have been staunch supporters of our festival over the years, and we are glad to welcome them back to our main stage once again.

Multi-award winning Merry Hell offer joyful, uplifting folk-rock, with a message for troubled times. Native to the North-West of England, the 8-piece musical charabanc was fuelled from the embers of the much-loved folk-punk band The Tansads, before developing a life and feel all of its own. Their energy and passion are complemented by their love of what they do and desire to share hope and togetherness with as many people as are willing to listen. Through 7 well-received albums and hundreds of gigs, they’ve offered voices of hope and beacons of light to anyone valuing spirit, energy, melody and positive humanity.

In addition to Merry Hell, we also have a fantastic line-up of other acts (see below) as per usual, and hopefully there is something on the bill for everyone.

The Festival committee would like to extend a warm welcome to all our festival visitors, who we hope will all have a great day.

Please remember to support our official bar and ‘merch’ stall, as this is how we help to raise the funds to put on next year’s festival, and this allows us to keep the festival FREE for all who attend.

Hopefully see you there!
