Wickham Festival News

Stage Times have just been announced for our two main stages

It’s only 10 days to go until this year’s Wickham Festival!  We are pleased to say that all performance times on both our main stages have now been added to our website over the weekend and can be viewed in our line up section.

We really do feel this is a very diverse line up with some incredible artists performing across very different styles.  As always, we’ve tried to avoid clashes between similar artists as much as possible.  Of course, with more than one stage it is impossible to please everyone, but we’ve tried to please as many of you as possible.

It’s getting very exciting as we put into action all our plans to improve the festival site.  Tomorrow morning we move onto our wonderful new Festival field and start to build our arena. With lots of sunshine forecast it’s going to be a great Festival. The fields are greener, flatter, and with better drainage!  There’s far less walking and we’re sure you’ll be immediately impressed with the changes on your arrival.

Tickets are still available on the tickets pageWe hope to see you soon!
