Summer Sundae Weekender has always taken pains to create an environment that looks to fully engage both youngsters and adults alike; it is truly a festival for all ages. In-house surveys have shown that the festival has become a destination festival for those looking for an eclectic mix of performers in a relatively small and un-crowded environment. 2010 saw the festival celebrate its 10th year and what a year it was, with sell-out dates and the finest and most eclectic of line-ups being enjoyed by more than 6,000 people.

Year on year Summer Sundae Weekender has delivered a broad spectrum of emerging and established artists from the field of music and comedy. This year headliners included Mumford & Sons, Tinchy Stryder and Seasick Steve. Past headliners have included Belle and Sebastian, Patti Smith, The Charlatans and Billy Bragg. Summer Sundae also always has its finger firmly on the pulse of whatÂ’s fresh, new and earmarked. In years gone by Amy Winehouse, Eliza Doolittle, Mr. Hudson, Kate Nash, Jamie T, Hot Chip, Editors and Kasabian have all appeared on the Summer Sundae Weekender stage, just on the cusp of their mainstream success.
