GUILFEST INFORMATIONthe stagesFriday 14th October 2011 Main Stage This is the largest stage; previously sponsored by BBC Radio 2 and more than often graced by the typical Radio 2 acts that fill the station's airwaves. In the last few years acts like Madness, Aha, Status Quo, UB40 and The Pogues have all performed on this stage.  2nd Stage What used to be known as The Uncut stage and the Ents24 stage, which is an inflatable stage that's smaller than the main stage and has a considerably weaker sound system. The stage often features a few obscure acts as well as some more household names and has hosted British Sea Power, Seth Lakeman, Bowling For Soup, Dreadzone, Blackbud, The Beta Band, Hayseed Dixie and Simple Kid in recent years. Rock Sound Cave This is usually the place where the younger members of GuilFest congregate although in recent years a wider programme of acts has seen the crowd diversify. The line-up in the past has included acts like Reuben, SiKth, 65daysofstatic, Therapy, Fightstar, Bring Me The Horizon, Space Ritual, The Blackout, Senser, Attica, and Million Dead. At night the tent is transformed into a silent disco. The Dance Tent The Dance Tent is the place to check out big name DJs, and dance acts, backed up by local and up and coming DJs with a top class soundsystem, lighting rig and lasers.
