It’s that festival time of the year again, but if you couldn’t get tickets for Glastonbury don’t worry: head down to Brant Broughton on 28th August 2010 for the first ever BBFest.

Brant Broughton Village Hall Committee is introducing a summer party with 16 bands on two stages and entertainment for the whole family to raise money for the new village hall fund.

The event will include bands from London, Liverpool, Nottingham, Lincoln and even Brant Broughton. The confirmed headline acts are up and coming Liverpool band, Night Parade, Will Kevans from London as well as established South African performer Robin Auld.

Willem Pretorius, Brant Broughton resident and organiser of the event, said: “We are really looking forward to BBFest as we usually have a Fun Day on the Bank Holiday but this year we are doing something totally different.

“Night Parade and Will Kevans are particular favourites of mine so I’m really looking forward to their performances. So far we’ve sold over 500 tickets so we’re expecting a very good turn out on the day.”

There will be food and drink available however festival goers can take their own picnics too.

Children will be kept entertained for hours in the music workshops in the acoustic lounge throughout the afternoon as well as being able to play in the playground and on the bouncy castle.

Gates open at midday and free car parking will be available adjacent to the playing field.

Early bird tickets are currently available online at £15.00 and will increase to £20.00 per ticket for adults a week before the festival so get your tickets early. Children under 11 go free and £10.00 for children between 12 and 16 years old.
