Deadline for receipt of all trading applications – 1st April 2010

This year sees some exciting new changes to the Festival. Being keen to expand the programme to Festival go-ers we have added a fourth stage. Also, we are ensuring that the three stages regular Festival go-ers would recognise from past events have entertainment programmes designed to enhance & strengthen their reputation.

With the changes being made we are looking to spread trading across the site. The main trading area for non-food will still be the Island field but space in the original Main Stage field & the Horizon field will also be utilised. This will mean that along with a spread of food traders we will be able to offer festival go-ers the opportunity to browse goods whilst eating their favourite foods throughout the Festival area.

Building on the success of last years changes the Food Court with the open mic marquee & seating area will remain whilst the food offerings will focus more towards what could be termed main meals. Additional food trading areas will be set up close to the new fourth stage and we are once again establishing a food area in the original Main Stage field (which is now to be the Folk & Dance stage) these two locations will offer foods considered more as snacks.

All the documents you require to apply to trade are contained on this page. The terms & conditions & application forms are specific to either food or non-food trading so be sure to download the correct ones.
