Festival organiser Simon Robinson said: “This year's line up is nothing short of amazing - there's something for everyone and this year holds a special place for me and the guys in The Addiction as this year's stage is named in the memory and after our friend and their roadie John Boardman affectionately known as "Scrooge” who died earlier this year.The festival is open to people aged 14 and above
