Peter Andre
English post-punk rockers Public Image Ltd. (PiL) fronted by John Lydon, AKA Johnny Rotten, are confirmed to headline the Good Time Guide Stage on Sunday 17th July. Formed following the break up of the Sex Pistols in 1978, PiL are regarded as producing some of the most diverse music of the post-punk era, and they will be bringing their experimental sound fusing Rock, Dance, Folk, Ballet, Pop and Dub to bring the Good Time Guide Stage at GuilFest this year to a close this year.

Household name Peter Andre is confirmed to headline the Good Time Guide Stage on Saturday 16th July. Finding fame in the nineties with his No.1 debut album 'Natural' and two No.1 singles 'Mysterious Girl' and 'I Feel You', the singer has enjoyed a long and successful career. Last year saw Peter releasing his seventh studio album, 'Accelerate', he comes to GuilFest for the first time this July to showcase both new and old material.

80's synth-pop superstars Erasure make their GuilFest debut supporting James Blunt on the Main Stage at Stoke Park, in Guildford on Sunday 17th July. Formed 25 years ago, the duo of Vince Clarke and Andy Bell had a succession of influential and chart-topping pop anthems including 'A Little Respect', 'Sometimes', 'Victim Of Love', 'Ship Of Fools', 'Blue Savannah', 'Star', 'Chains Of Love', 'The Circus', 'Who Needs Love (Like That)', 'Love To Hate You', 'Drama!', 'Always' and 'Breathe'. The duo have a brand new album planned for release this summer.

They join the previously confirmed Razorlight and James Blunt who will be headlining the Main Stage. In the coming months, the GuilFest line-up will continue to grow with over 200 live acts and DJs performing on 7 stages across the festival site, including the Rock Cave, the Funky End Dance Tent, Acoustic Lounge and the two unsigned LiveClub stages.

GuilFest is a great laid-back festival where visitors can enjoy a great weekend taking place from Friday 15th until Sunday 17th July 2011 and it is not just about the music at GuilFest! All over the site you can find excellent entertainment such as the Man In The Moon Theatre Tent, featuring a wealth of diverse theatrical productions all weekend long. The eFestivals Cosmic Comedy Tent also returns this year with a yet to be announced line up of some of the best comedians in the business.

For the night owls there's the Farmer Giles' Barn Dance, the 70s disco, and The Ceroc Dance tent will keep you revelling 'til the early hours. All this, as well as the 150ft beer tent, cocktail bars, food and drink from around the world, craft and clothes stalls, impromptu street theatre performances and much more besides!

GuilFest also has a Kidzone for young ones featuring a children's theatre, face painting, fun rides, games, and costume making, culminating in a wonderful procession across the festival site on Sunday.
