Struggling to find a festival to accommodate your needs this summer? Perhaps Redfest can help, as it launches for its inaugural year with what is, in fairness, a decent line-up.
The Maccabees and Late of the Pier are the latest bands to be announced for the two-day affair, which takes place at Robins Cook Farm (yes, the ‘s’ is in the right place) in Redhill, Surrey on the 4th and 5th of July.
Also appearing will be Lightspeed Champion, Johnny Foreigner and Ebony Bones, as well as a bunch of other acts still to be confirmed.
Current line-up:
The Maccabees Late of the Pier Lightspeed Champion Does it Offend You, Yeah? Elliot Minor Operator Please Fear of Music Ebony Bones This City Johnny Foreigner Pete and the Pirates Haunt Wizards SixNationState
Eschewing corporate sponsorship and gimmicks with a promise to “take things back to basics so today’s youth can have the same experience that previous generations of festival goers had”, the 5000-capacity Redfest tickets cost £64 plus booking fee.
