Celebrate Lounge on the Farm's 5th Birthday
1 July 2010
Set in the idyllic surrounds of Merton Farm in Canterbury, Lounge on The Farm, winner of the UK Festival Awards’ Best Line Up Award 2009, has once again pulled out all the stops to assemble a fantastically eclectic bill, that doesn’t follow the herd!

Lounge on the Farm will be celebrating its landmark fifth birthday during the festival weekend, which takes place from 9 - 11 July 2010. With increased capacity, this year’s festival looks set to be the finest yet, with a medley of musical pleasures - from local heroes and the next big things to the truly legendary. Acts include Martha Reeves & The Vandellas, Toots & The Maytals and appearances from Tunng, Fionn Regan, Courtney Pine, Male Bonding, Silver Columns and Gold Panda, amongst many others.
Spread across seven stages, the festival also boasts incredible comedy, theatre, burlesque and vaudeville treats, the kids’ Little Lounge area, and some of the most refined, locally sourced, rustic refreshments to be found at any festival anywhere.
It sounds like the festival has something for everyone. For further details and ticket information see the festival website.
Competition
Don’t forget to enter our competition to win a pair of weekend camping tickets for Lounge on the Farm. The deadline for entries is 5 July 2010.
