Preview: Inglefest is back and bigger than ever

Preview: Inglefest is back and bigger than ever

Posted on: 11 Aug 2021

The much-anticipated return of festivals is upon us, and the vast array of events in the South West celebrating the local music landscape are back - and in Inglefest's case, bigger than ever.

 

If you've missed standing in a field listening to tunes over the past year, why not dig out the tent, dust off the cobwebs, and head to Inglefest this weekend?

 

The three-day festival will bring the sound of music to the South Cotswolds, showcasing a selection of acts sourced from the potent and ambitious music communities of Bristol and the South West. 

 

The festival will run from Friday 13 August 2021 to Sunday 15 August 2021, and alongside an intricately scheduled programme of music that avoids any clashes, a selection of the finest food and drink suppliers in the region will be in attendance.

 

 

Since the first edition of Inglefest was held in 2013 after an epic sixth form garden party, the event has gone from strength to strength, this year landing at Oxwick Farm, its biggest location yet.

 

With their new hosts, the festival has been able to expand, adding a third stage for the first time, allowing more acts to take to the stage than in previous years.

 

2021's festival is also the longest edition yet, with organisers adding an extra day to the usual two-day celebration of good music and food to make up for lost time after the forced cancellation of 2020’s edition.

Tickets for the weekend will cost adults £60 and teenagers under the age of 17 just £30. Entry for children aged six to 12 costs £20, and those aged five and under go free.

This year's line-up caters to a range of tastes, featuring names such as Run Logan Run, frontrunners in Bristol's jazz renaissance, alt-rock group Dogeyed, and folk artist Eli Carvajal. 

 

There aren't many tickets left, but if you fancy a staycation camping in the sun and listening to good music, click here.
