Tom’s Tuesday and Wednesday headline performances offer the chance to hear him in the unique and intimate setting of the Larmer Tree gardens, and the opportunity to enjoy the full festival experience midweek. With just 4,000 tickets available, the audience will be able to indulge in delicious festival fare, enjoy the wonderful Larmer art installations, and take part in a spot of shopping at the global bazaar before settling down to a night of live music under the stars.

The festival directors are also thrilled to announce the addition of The Shires who will be supporting Tom Jones on both Tuesday 14th and Wednesday 15th July, warming the crowd up with their British take on American country music.
