FLEETWOODS MAC’S PETER GREEN & THE LIGHTNING SEEDS JOIN SCOUTING FOR GIRLS, SUGABABES & SHARLEEN SPITERI AT 2009 CORNBURY EXTRAVAGANZA!
CORNBURY FESTIVAL – THIS WEEKEND – JULY 11th & 12th
The UK’s most beautiful boutique festival continues its eclectic musical tradition as it announces the line up for its 6th glorious year.
With a fusion of indie pop Brit nominees Scouting for Girls and ‘Belle de Jour’ Imelda May, the stage is shared with inimitable girl group Sugababes and Chrissie Hynde’s legendery rock outfit The Pretenders.
“Cornbury is a unique experience in all manner of ways”, says promoter Hugh Phillimore. “We’re immensely proud of our musical diversity and family friendly ethos. Where else could you see The Damned and the Sugababes on one bill?”
The festival embraces the ‘something for everyone’ approach. From alt rockers The Magic Numbers and rising stars Teddy Thompson and Archangel, to the retro classic chic of Sharleen Spiteri, perfect pop from The Lightning Seeds and Fleetwood Mac founder, Peter Green, appearing in the UK for the 1st time in over four years, Cornbury attracts festival goers from all age ranges and with all manner of tastes.
Cornbury is about its beautiful Cotswold location, fantastic food, hot air balloons, the madness of the many morris dance pageant, children’s theatre workshops, great festival shops and a huge fairground all held together by a carefully selected spectrum of top music talent. Typically English – eccentric, eclectic and inclusive – a farmers’ market with a dancefloor, a county fayre with a rock ‘n’ roll twist indeed!
“The Most charming festival you will ever attend” – UNCUT

“Set in the natural bowl of the oak-strewn, verdant slopes of the Cornbury estate, it lays claim to the cleanest, cosiest and classiest fest that I have ever frequented” – MARIE CLAIRE
“Family friendly, with plenty of face-painting and sideshows to keep the kids happy” – THE OBSERVER
