What seems to be, judging from the initial reaction, the hottest ticket in town goes on sale this weekend.

Gig in the Park this year features headliners Fun Lovin Criminals who need no introduction to the Suffolk crowds supported by Nine below Zero and Benjamin Bloom. Friday sees headliner Katrina (formally of Katrina and the Waves) and Sunday sees Lee Vasey and Buster James round off the proceedings supported by a full line up of both local and national acts. The new Other stage features a full programme of acts as does the also new for this year Unplugged@ GiginthePark stage which features London songstress Mary Leay along with a full line up.

Now in its  15th year this year’s show promises to be one of the best yet and as always promises a friendly vibe and a family friendly atmosphere.  The gig, being held this year on the weekend of 10th -12th August is sure to be popular and one way of ensuring your place at the event is to buy an advance ticket. Advance tickets offer a significant cost saving over tickets on the day (if there are any available) and are available from the Halesworth Food Fair on Sunday 24th August and on general release a day later via the Halesworth bookshop and Saxon Beccles and online or via telephone from the UEA box office or telephone 01603 508050

As always there will be food from around the globe and one of the largest real ale bars in the UK will be available.
