Village Pump Folk Festival, taking place at White Horse Country Park, Westbury, in Wiltshire have added two late additions to their music programme the Strawbs and multi award-winning duo Megson. Plus, from Thursday 2nd April, the release of limited Day Tickets for this weekend festival go on sale.

Festival director John Alderslade commented :- “ I am delighted to be able to announce today these additions to what has already been acclaimed as an excellent line-up. Dave Cousins, lead singer of the Strawbs, has promised our Pumpers a special show which will revel in the music of the band both acoustically and as they were in their full 70s prog folk-rockish, chart-topping, pomp! Megson meanwhile, will be bringing both their special show for families, aimed especially at the youngest children, as well as their normal show for adults. These additions underline how the Village Pump Folk Festival caters for the whole family in its core musical offerings.”

The organisers, responding to demand for day tickets, are also pleased to announce that people only able to attend for one of the Festival days are able to purchase day tickets from Thursday 2nd April.
