We’re delighted to announce our Late-Night Comedy line-up for this year’s Wickham Music Festival

Posted on by Peter Chegwyn

We’re delighted to confirm that comedy is returning to Wickham Festival for 2023. This will start after music on the main stages finishes at 23.00. Mike Cox will be the MC for all nights on our comedy stage (Thursday through to Saturday). Mike has been performing comedy since 2011 and quickly made his mark on the comedy scene with his sharp-witted observational style which saw him crowned South Coast Comedian of the Year in 2014.

Can you spot yourself in our 2022 gallery?

Posted on by Peter Chegwyn

We hope you’ve all enjoyed a great Xmas with family and friends this last week.  We’ve just published our Wickham Festival 2022 gallery and hope that some of you can spot a familiar face or two amongst the 190 pictures we captured this year.  Whilst we have many images of the artists that appeared this year, it’s always the “The Real Stars of Wickham” ones we love the most.  We believe these capture what is so different about Wickham Festival.

    Yes, as others have said, a site plan would be good even if things have to change at the last minute. So the Big Tops are on the west of the Wickham to Waltham Chase road this year. Where is the camping in relation to the Big Top field? Is it the other side of the main road? Surely not.

    Does excited happy dance 🕺, wanders off to pack, sun cream, waterproofs, sun dress, thermals, sandals, wellies... having done Wickham in all weather's I just know the music and site will be AMAZING whatever the british weather throws at us. Thank you. Xx

    Can we arrive on the Wednesday?
