Director, Adam Curtis said: “We are expecting 8000 on the field this year and predominantly families. It is great that the festival has grown to support a great range of music, arts and activities, as well as tourism for the local area. The big exciting new space for this year is the Thunderdome, a coliseum-esque structure with a boxing ring in the middle to host dance battles, jelly wrestling and many other fun activities. We look forward to making the Garden blossom for its 8th year. See you on the dance floor!”
