The Willow Festival - Dorset

The Willow Festival is the largest all live music festival of its type and remit in the World today, exclusively showcasing over 450 emerging, new and unsigned solo artists and bands at three major festivals across three counties, Northants, Cambs and Dorset.

Traditionally held in Cambridgeshire, The Willow Festival has now teamed up with the Britrox organisation to produce the event in Dorset at Canford Park Arena on Sept 16th-18th 2016 and will feature approximately 180 live bands and solo artists..

This family friendly extravaganza has regularly attracted over 50,000 visitors each time it is staged, and is set to become one of Dorset's premier annual events.

The Willow Festival exists to promote the very best of new, emerging and unsigned live music artists and to help them realise a semi-professional or professional career within the music industry. The spin off is that the public are treated to a great weekend of live music covering all popular music genres including, rock, folk, funk, reggae, world music, jazz, punk, metal, country etc.

As well as the exciting array of artists appearing at The Willow Festival, the event offers many other attractions including extreme rides, kid's fun attractions, alternative shopping experience, fair price bars and world food village.

Canford Park Arena is also situated on the border of Poole and Bournemouth with all the attractions both of these beautiful towns have to offer just a short distance away.

Although The Willow Festival is a major event, the festival organisation is a "Not For Profit" entity and remains committed and focused on it's goals rather than commercial gains. Because of this ethos, ticket prices for the public are kept to a minimum and general entry is just £10.00 + booking fee and you can come and go as many times as you wish over the weekend festivities..
