VIP upgrade for fans of Carlos Nunez

Fans of Galician bagpipe specialist Carlos Nunez can get a free upgrade to VIP status for his show at the Wickham Festival if they are also attending his show the previous night.

The renowned Spanish celtic musician is playing the Chapel Sessions not-for-profit event at Royal Victoria Country Park in Netley on Wednesday August 5.

People who buy for both shows will get a free VIP pass on production of their Southampton show ticket on arrival at Wickham.

Fans are advised it is worth seeing the man dubbed “Hendrix of the bagpipes” in two completely different settings especially with the free upgrade at Wickham.

    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?
