Festival organisers have also confirmed that there will be comedy and spoken word on Saturday and Sunday daytime in The Little Big Top for the first time this year.

The family friendly festival has music across five stages, family camping, a huge open children's area, food & craft stalls, real ale bars, fancy dress and amazing site art.

The Levellers first put together their own festival in 2003 "to offer not only the best in live music today but to re-create a community spirit that many events nowadays lack or choose to ignore. This event is about people young and old coming together and taking part in something that will be remembered for a long time." It's certainly succeeded in that aim, and is fast becoming one of the most popular and talked about festivals in the UK.
