The Levellers to headline Beautiful Days festival

Beautiful Days is the Levellers‘ festival set in the heart of Devon, now approaching its sixth year. The festival has five music stages, a huge children’s area, amazing site art, local real-ale bars, food and craft stalls, family camping, comedy and walkabout theatre. With an intimate atmosphere and a feel-good vibe, Beautiful Days has fast become one of the most popular festivals in the UK. Virtual Festivals recently put Beautiful Days at No. 6 in their Top Ten Boutique Festivals for 2008.
The festival takes place 15, 16, 17 August 2008 at Escot Park, Ottery St Mary (Nr Fairmile) Devon.
Winner of Best Grass Roots Festival at the UK Festival Awards in 2006, Beautiful Days has no corporate sponsorship, no mainstream media partners and does not advertise. The festival has, however, sold out in advance for the last few years and tickets for this year look set to do the same.
Other acts for 2008 include Squeeze, Supergrass, Flogging Molly, Ross Noble, Gabriella Cilmi, Idlewild, Alabama 3, Nouvelle Vague, Stiff Little Fingers, Seth Lakeman, Turin Brakes, Cage The Elephant, Fishbone, Eat Static, John Cooper Clarke, Zion Train and loads more!
Weekend Camping Tickets £90 / discounted children’s tickets available
