British Sea Power added to Guilfest bill

United Kingdom | | 12 May 2008

British Sea Power will headline the Ents24 Stage at this year's Guilfest, which takes place at Stoke Park, Guildford from 4-6 July.

The four-piece will head up the stage on the Sunday (4), which already boasts appearances from Dreadzone and Seth Lakeman.

Other acts confirmed include Joe Lean and the Jing Jang Jong who will play on the Sunday and The Egg who will appear on the Friday.

Wills And The Willing have also been announced today for Saturday's main stage and they look likely to bring a number of guest vocalists from their album 'Heroes and Villians' with them.

This has fuelled rumours that Chelsea footballers Didier Drogba and Michael Essien, who appear on the album's first single 'Skin', will both sing onstage with the band.

Guilfest organisers have also announced that a David Beckham Soccer Academy will be offering training sessions from professional coaches over the weekend.

Guilfest 2008 is set to be headlined by The Levellers, Blondie and The Australian Pink Floyd Show with The Damned, Bowling For Soup and Cerys Matthews also set to perform. Click HERE for the latest line-up.

Over 200 acts will feature at the festival with many more to be announced in the coming weeks. There will also be comedy, children's entertainment, street theatre, art and crafts and an extensive children's area: The KidZone.

Tickets are on sale now, priced £100 for adult weekend camping (or £90 without camping). Day tickets cost £40. Click HERE to buy.
