Traditionally one of the first festivals of the summer, Wychwood's home lies on Cheltenham Racecourse beneath the idyllic Prestbury Hills. This year promises to deliver the biggest program to date in celebration of ten phenomenal years.
The first wave of stellar acts to kick off 2014's celebrations in style have been announced! Boomtown Rats will headline Sunday night's festivities, including the legendary Bob Geldof, plus icon Craig Charles will be returning to the Big Top after a fantastic performance in 2013. Soul superstars The Real Thing have also been confirmed as Friday night performers and will set the bar high for the rest of the weekend.
Wychwood Festival boasts an eclectic and innovative programme that includes indie, folk, rock and world music with some of the most talented emerging artists on the UK’s music scene appearing alongside industry veterans and cult classics across an exceptional weekend of entertainment. The stunning Gloucestershire countryside plays host to an utterly delightful atmosphere enjoyed by all the family, whether a toddler, a teenager, a parent or a festival reveller, there truly is something for the whole family.
