Entertainment

Live music, street theatre and delicious regional food, real ales, cider and champagne will make this Bath's most unique weekend out. Join friends, family and work colleagues and celebrate summer. There’ll be a hog roast from Glamorgan Vale, the Wessex Pantry will be serving up game pies, Rogan Josh will be offering some of the best Chicken Bhuna, why not wash this down with wine from Chile or the traditional taste of Real Ale from Baths Abbey Ales Brewery. One day won’t be enough, enjoy the festival during the day and join us on Saturday evening for a relaxing night under the stars for the best night going, then back for more on Sunday.

 

 

Saturday
 

Cosmic Sausages

The Cosmic Sausages

With a repertoire of hundreds of songs, melodies and theme tunes, taking their audience on a madcap musical tour of the world, meeting up with James Bond, Serge Gainsbourg, the Mafia, deranged cowboys, faith-healers, Cossacks and overacting pop-stars along the way.
Appearing first as a gentle folk band and armed only with acoustic instruments, close harmonies and a shared vision of the surreal, the Cosmic Sausages ambush their audience with a sustained barrage of pop classics, mixing theatre, circus, slapstick, competitions, crowd participation and insane walkabouts.

Silver Campervan

Silver Campervan

If ever there was a act whose music epitomised a warm summer evening it’s Silver Campervan. Acoustic Indie/Folk three piece. Sweet harmonies, fiddly guitar, sensitive lyrics and Amy Gardner’s beautiful vocals pretty much sums up these guys (an gal). A highlight at last year’s Cheltenham festival.

Thee Ones

The Ones

Thee Ones music floats like an intoxicating mist of Rythmn & Blues, Latin Soul and 60s Funk. Like a stew of 'Swam Boogaloosis' 

 

 

Fishwives

The Fishwives of Knorrel Nock 

Mrs Dory of the late John Dory (Cod rest his Sole) and Mrs Halibut (doesn't she have a big one) whose husband was a bit flat, are now in search of new husbands or anything they can lay their fins on and take back to Knorrel Nock, out to sea and past the fourth rock on the right. Feel like a fish out of water as they knit together old fishwives tales about herring heads, salty seadogs and stargazey pies. Beware of their fishing tackle they might have you battered and fried before you know it.

 

 

 

Man in a Box

Man in a Box  

Curiosity is aroused by the arrival of two characters with a box. Despite his size one manages to climb in and shut the lid. The box then grows legs and leaps into life, creating an astounding and amazing illusion. Carefully guided by his companion, meeting and greeting are a speciality, but given half a chance they’ll have you playing football on the street.

The Sea Gulls

The Seagulls

These cheeky sea birds have had bookers in a flap all over the world. Giant cheeky gulls with working beaks, they’ll rummage in bags and pockets, steal food, squabble amongst themselves and generally cause a fuss.

 

 

 

Freefoot-and-Roamany

Free Foot and Romany

Meet these uncanny little fellars, the peddlers with a big attitude who have walked for miles around the world and back again. With packs on their backs These two are out for a bargin and will barter the day away.
