Field Day Festival: Final Line Up Revealed Print E-mail
Monday, 04 August 2008 22:05

fieldday.jpgWith 8 days to go, fences being hoiked up, tepee tents being erected, stages being built, tracks being laid, bunting being strung, haybales on the way, and cool, cold festival ales being hauled onsite, Victoria Park is already readying itself for the return of FIELD DAY. With remaining tickets flying out for the event on August 9th, bands confirmed, and everything onsite coming together very nicely indeed, it promises to be a High Summer Jamboree of sizeable proportions. 

Adding to the merriment promised for August 9th, the final addition to the festival’s "already all-killer-no-filler" lineup has just been confirmed – Field Day’s very own 25-member BRASS BAND will be on hand to entertain revellers with renditions of everything from Led Zepplin to Kylie, KLF to Stevie Wonder….Talking Heads to...OH YEAH – Beyonce. Plus the odd cult theme tune.  It’ll blow (guffaw!) you’re mind.
 
With the very best of all things alternative from the realms of dance, electro, indie and folk booked to play across the festival’s 5 individually programmed stages, plus their very own Village Fete readied to supply the masses with some countrified fun and games, organisers have gone all out to make FIELD DAY 2008 a one day festival experience like no other…

Foals, Simian Mobile Disco, Mystery Jets, Les Savy Fav, Richie Hawtin, Laura Marling, Lightspeed Champion and Noah & The Whale, along with DJ’s Matt Helders (Arctic Monkeys), Huw Stephens and Rob Da Bank are just some of the artists set to play FIELD DAY August 9TH. Full lineup listed here:-
