Bellowhead And Kissmet First Acts Confirmed For Wychwood 2009

[temi]

Early Bird Discounted Ticket Offer For Festival¹s Fifth Anniversary Year Wychwood Music Festival 2009, which celebrates its fifth anniversary year in 2009, will take place at the luscious Cheltenham Racecourse from Friday 29 May to Sunday 31 May 2009. The first acts added to the festival¹s famously eclectic line up for 2009 have been confirmed as multi BBC Radio 2 Folk Award winners Bellowhead, and frontrunners of the British-Asian music fusion scene Kissmet. There are a limited number of discounted early bird tickets available for Wychwood Festival 2009 which can be purchased from the festival office on +44 (0)1993 772 580, or by downloading the application form online at www.wychwoodfestival.com. Further more, to help out music lovers in this difficult financial period Wychwood will not cash cheques or charge credit cards for early bird tickets until 30 November 2008, allowing festival-goers plenty of time to budget. Due to the hundreds of people who already bought their early bird tickets onsite at this year¹s festival the number of discounted tickets available under this offer are very limited and the offer is only open whilst stocks last. 2008 was Wychwood¹s most successful year to date with a 15% rise in ticket sales taking the festival almost to the point of selling out. Wychwood Festival officially bucked the trend of many other events in 2008. Despite the poor weather, the credit crunch and questionable organisation found at many of 2008¹s other outdoor music events, Wychwood enjoyed a dry and warm year with an amazing atmosphere created by the happy crowds and brilliant performances, which included The Divine Comedy, Duffy and The Imagined Village among many others. With its unique blend of high quality and truly diverse music, family focused and not just family friendly set up and dedication to a green ethos, Wychwood Festival has cemented its position as the best way to start the UK¹s festival season. Over the coming months the Wychwood team will be announcing further additions to the line up and details of the many other activities and attractions set to make 2009 another record setting year for the festival.
