Rockness 2012

RockNess 2012 launches with a gargantuan roar as the first acts of the multi award winning Scottish festival are announced.

Topping off an incredible twelve months for the NME Awards 2011 ‘Best Small Festival’ Winner, the three day knees up beside world famous Loch Ness in the Scottish Highlands brings together the hottest names in rock, electro and indie, and 2012 is set to be the most awesome yet.

This year's headliners are Mumford and Sons, Deadmau5 and Biffy Clyro. They will be joined by Ed Sheeran and Justice, plus a whole host of top rock, indie and electro artists, with lots more to be announced!

In what will surely be the most fun journey of the summer, The Rockness Express makes its exciting debut this June and marks the Year of Creative Scotland. This specially chartered train will depart from London Euston, picking up festival goers at Birmingham, Derby, York and Newcastle, before delivering the up-for-it party people to their final destination of Inverness.

Expect a full scale shindig on board The Rockness Express with top music, surprise guests, the best of Scottish food, cocktails, games and goody bags. What's more, RockNess Expressers will get priority access on site before anyone else arrives AND a private party! If that isn't enough, the unbeatable price of £225 is sure to impress. For this, revellers will get a VIP weekend ticket with camping PLUS travel from any of these UK destinations (only £16 more than a VIP ticket on its own), and be boosting their green credentials while having heaps of fun at the same time. All aboard!
