Now into its 13th year, The Gathering begins the UK's didjeridu festival season and is a great chance to catch up with old friends from all around the UK, make some new ones and listen to what everyone's been doing with their didjes over the winter break. The dates are Friday 1st until Sunday 3rd May 2015.
Line-up
Rob (riddim) Watkins, Sea Of Atoms, Kev Howard, Ian Scotty Moorhouse, Kyle Maplesden, Jonny Cope, DeadEye Masters, Mike Edwards (Axis & Digitalis), The Alchemists Wardrobe, DidjBeat George, John Thorpe, Cephalodidge, Michelle & Isis, Rodrigo Viterbo (Portugal), Wildwood, Melvin Wright, and more.
The Gathering is also unique in that there are no set performances over the weekend, it's pretty much a non-stop, didje oriented open mic & jam session. You'll not only get a chance to listen to some great musicians but you can also get up and perform yourself in front of a friendly & receptive audience.
Many of the UK's top didje players will be there joining in and also giving various workshops throughout the weekend for different abilities and styles of playing.
Family friendly
A really friendly and welcoming family atmosphere in a beautiful countryside setting. There will also be stalls with some great didjes for you to try and buy.
Tickets
Adult tickets including camping are priced at £40, Children aged 10 - 15 are £20 and under 10s are free.

For the benefit of families with younger children, it's asked that the camping be a quiet area between 9pm and 9am. Festival goers are welcome to make lots of noise, bang drums, shout and sing in other places during the campsite quiet time, for example in the Barn or down at the lake.
