Benjamin Francis Leftwich for Truck

Benjamin Francis Leftwich, Heidi Talbot, and Kris Drever are amongst the latest acts announced for Oxfordshire's fourteenth Truck festival.

Truck's little sibling, Wood, happened last weekend, and Truck Festival will be bringing a Wood Field to Hill Farm in Steventon for a folk, family, friends-of-the-earth type flavour for Truckers to enjoy. The Wood Field will be home to the family camping area, the kids tent, workshops for all ages and green initiatives.

The field will be centred around the Wood Stage and will present a line-up programmed by Oxford Folk Festival on the Saturday and Sunday with acts including Benjamin Francis Leftwich, Heidi Talbot, Kris Drever, No1 Ladies Accordion Orchestra, Dana & Susan Robinson, Pilgrims Way, Monument Valley, Rachael Dadd, and Katy Rose & The Cavalry Parade. With Oxford Playhouse providing a number of activities for children through their learning team and will be staging an outdoor production of ‘'The Secret Garden'’.

On Friday the Wood Stage will host Gabriel Prokofiev's NonClassical, Consortium 5, and Juice Vocal Ensemble amongst others still to be announced.

One of the other hits at Wood, the Kitstock tent, will also be coming to Steventon, creating another relaxed, chilled out space at the other end of the newly designed site.
