Tom Walker a.k.a. Jonathan Pie video at Wickham Festival 2017

For those who enjoyed the Q&A with Tom Walker a.k.a. Jonathan Pie at last year’s Wickham Festival or for those that missed it, here’s a video of the full show…

We are pleased to say that the comedy tent is back by popular demand this year.  Subject to confirmation we’re hoping to have Jonathan Pie’s full stand-up comedy show at Wickham Festival 2018 this August.  After the music finishes you’ll have the choice of a comedy or cinema tent.  We’re thinking of some late-night screenings of classic festival films this year.  Head on over to our Facebook page to make requests of what you’d like to see.

Or if you’d just prefer to socialise after the music, along with our Moose Bar we’ll be adding Stubbs McGhee’s, a new purpose-built pub with upstairs seating and viewing area.

In case this isn’t enough, there will also be an extra Tipi Bar elsewhere on the site as well as the Cocktail Bar that proved popular last year.
