Early bird tickets will go on sale today, Friday 28th November, at 12.00pm for next year's Beatherder Festival, described as a festival of beats and baaminess.

2015 will see the three days event returning for its tenth birthday. Situated in the Ribble Valley, Lancashire from Friday 17th until Sunday 19th July 2015.

The festival is independently funded and has no involvement in corporate organisations, nor does it receive any sponsorship. It has organically grown from its free party roots and has a musical emphasis on dance and electronic artists. The festival is renowned for it's dramatic creative site art, and unique venues including The Fortress complete with towers, turrets and flame throwers, Pratty's Ring, a huge earth bowl apparently carved from the ground by local, shovel handed, legend ‘The Giant John Pratt'. The Street features not only a functioning church, hotel, and hair salon, but a tattooist where ‘lifers' can demonstrate their allegiance with a Beat-Herder tattoo. At its centre is The Woods, a magical arena at the heart of festival surrounded by huge swaying Pines and not forgetting the Beat Herder and District Working Men's Club with Bingo and the hugely popular Beat Herder's got Talent competition.

Tickets will be sold on tiers with and priced from £100.To celebrate ten years of Beat-Herding organisers doubled the amount of Tier 1 tickets available, but organisers still expect these to sell out very quickly (usually in a matter of a few minutes). Tier 2 tickets cost £115, Tier 3 are £127.50 and Tier 4 cost £140. Prices are subject to an additional booking fee.

All Beat-Herder tickets, regardless of the tier, are the same with the same entitlements. All tiers are available, so either grab a bargain from the lower tiers while you can, or if you're feeling super flush, buy a ticket from the top end to give those with shallow pockets a cheaper option.

All Adult Tickets are subject to a £5 refundable litter bond. This will be refunded at the festival when the ticket holder presents a full bag of litter at a litter bond station in the campsite or campervan field.

New this year, is the 'Youth Ticket' for anyone aged from 13 - 17 years old priced at £75 plus booking fee. All Youth Ticket holders must be accompanied to the festival by a parent, a legal guardian or a nominated guardian over the age of 30.

Child tickets for those aged 2 to 12 years old are £25 plus BF. Under 2 year olds need an Infant Ticket, but these cost £nothing.

This year there's the Car Parking Pass at £11, Campervan Pass (up to 6m in length) for £25, Campervan Pass (6m in length or longer) £40, and the Car and Caravan Pass for £40.

The cost of tickets can be spread out through the Deposit Scheme or the monthly Payment Plan for Tier 3 Adult Tickets as well as all child and vehicle passes. The Payment Plan collects your payments automatically via Direct Debit. The Deposit Scheme allows you to secure your ticket with a 50% deposit. The balance needs settling before May 1st 2015.

2015's line up will be announced in the New Year.
