For 2007 there's a new ticketing structure:-
The GOLD season ticket is similar to the 2006 season ticket, and offers admission to all events (including the Late Night Extra) other than major headline evening events.
The PLATINUM season ticket is all-inclusive, and offers fantastic value with sixteen headline evening acts at the Ham and Bulverton venues, as well as the hundreds of other events all week.
For children and young people, there are Child and Youth season tickets as usual, as well as some great package deals for families or groups with children. There are also festival camping tickets available to all, with or without a season ticket.
Finally, there's a brand new ticket this year for 18-25 year olds - the BULVERTON season ticket offers admission to all events at the Bulverton site (including headline acts and Late Night Extras), as well as all workshops in the town all week. This offers particularly good value for younger festival visitors who like to soak up the atmosphere.

The festival spreads into several venues throughout the town with a wide range of concerts, dances and workshops to choose from. There are likely to be lots of different events over 8 days including international music and dance spectaculars, concerts, ceilidhs, workshops, processions, craft fair, a themed children's festival with plenty of craft activities, fun and games, and workshops.

More information will be here when available.
