Julie Cook, Managing Director of Football Fusion says, "The idea has always been to create an event that would appeal to the whole family and the combination of football and music was a natural choice for us. I'm pleased to say that the festival is growing on a daily basis and we are talking to a number of top footballers and world-class music acts. On top of that, we have a great selection of events and activities which people can get involved with: the football tournament, the footballer 'Meet & Greet' area, the Wag-Wam and of course the brilliant atmosphere."

For small children there will be the Kiddies Kingdom which will provide fun and entertainment.

Camping

The festival will have facilities for 3,000+ campers.
