Simon Care in any guise is good for me
We never booked him for Wickham but we always loved his music. R.I.P. Meat Loaf www.youtube.com/watch?v=3QGMCSCFoKA
I was pit medic for two of his gigs on the island absolutely brilliant gig and a true gentleman
The Wonderful Enigmatic Charming Talented Meatloaf xxx
So sad loved his energy and music
Iconic album...soundtrack to my university years!❤️ Feeling sad today😥
Saw him live several times, ran about the stage like a teenager, so much raw energy, such a talent
He would’ve been top of my wish list to book had I not already been lucky enough to see him live a few years ago. Words cannot express how much talent we have just lost in this man.
Rest In Peace 🌹🙏
Was my first ever live gig aged about 14yrs old at Portsmouth Guildhall in the 80s. Sparked a love of live music that still exists today
So looking forward to seeing Levellers + Ferocious Dog at the Wickham Festival on Saturday 6th August 2022. Plus special guests t.b.a. shortly. Day & Weekend tickets on sale now via www.wickhamfestival.co.uk/tickets

Can't wait!! So glad I decided to get a ticket instead of a much needed new kitchen flooring 😊!!!
My dad is so looking forward to this! Booked after last year & despite the horrendous conditions, you guys went above & beyond!! 👏🏼
Getting to see my all time favourite band is awesome. The only thing to make it better would be if my favourite solo singer played there again as well… Mr McTell?
Levellers best UK live original band. Still got my Wickham 2017 set list. Ferocious Dog supported Levellers in the past, but now the dogs bollocks. Really looking forward to seeing both bands.
I will finally get to see the levellers live, another tick on my bucket list, now if you could just work your magic and get the Thompson Twins my life will be complete
This is going to be awesome 🤩🤩🤩 Hope there's no clashes!
Newly confirmed. The Trouble Notes will be at Wickham on Sunday 7th Aug. 2022 (They were due to be with us in 2021 but Covid prevented international travel). Great band!

Such a fantastic group! Everyone will be dancing 💃🏻
Excellent news!!!
More than a hint of Black Violin about them
Pleased to confirm FitUp will be back at Wickham in August with their outdoor circus & cabaret shows plus hugely popular circus skills workshops
Day & Weekend Tickets available and selling fast. You can still save £50 on 4-day adult weekend season tickets if you book now via www.wickhamfestival.co.uk/tickets
Can you get the 3 Daft Monkeys too??
When I went, the music was sooo excellent!!! However, there should deffo be less people sat on their arse in chairs🙄😑
Think it would be great if the solar cinema came back or something similar it was great for a bit of chill time with the children
Are the Sniffer Dogs coming?
Any chance big country?

Would love to see Bleeding Hearts here!
