Truck festival is heading to America

Truck Festival organisers, inspired by Woodstock, are to put on an event in America. Truck America will happen over the weekend of Friday 30th April until Sunday 2nd May 2010 at Full Moon Resort, Catskills Mountains, New York State, in the USA.

Organisers have revealed that they have been inspired by the most famous festival of all time - Woodstock. They say, "Just like those unsuspecting hippies back then we found ourselves with the opportunity to pack up the sharabang with musicians, friends and some big old speakers and truck out to that same area in upstate New York to throw a huge party on the Full Moon Resort."

Truck festival in Oxfordshire has run for 13 years inspired by America's Woodstock Festival and has the same basic principles of independence and ethically minded and cooperative production, with a passion for introducing cutting edge new music as well as a reverential nod back to the classics. This new event hopes to recapture the spirit of the hippie festival.

There are no acts confirmed yet for 2010, and ticket prices have not yet been confirmed, and tickets are not yet on sale.

Positioned 2 hours north of New York city and 3 hours from Toronto (and actually 30 miles closer to Woodstock than the original festival was) they are aiming to make it a 1000 capacity festival.
