PREVIEW: 2000 Trees Festival

.
One of our favourite festivals is back!

2000trees has not only one of the best line-ups, but all the best atmospheres, of any festival i’ve been to in the last 4 years. Thats why 2013 will be my 5th visit.

Running this year from the 11-13th of July at Upcote Farm near Cheltenham, 2000trees is one of the best festivals for new underground music in the UK.

The 2000trees festival has revealed the line-up for the Early Entry evening. Headliners Future of the Left will be joined by The Xcerts, Gallops, Max Raptor, Freeze the Atlantic and EMPIRE. These acts are among the organisers’ favourite bands – most have previously played at 2000trees and are back by popular demand on July 11, giving fans the chance to enjoy an extra day of music and revelry.

More than half of Early Entry tickets have already been sold in just a week of ticket sales and the festival has sold out for the last three years. Around 5,000 music fans will get the chance to discover the very best new and underground British bands on four stages, plus comedy, DJs, quality food and drink and children’s entertainment.

Founder Andy Rea said: “We are really pleased to welcome back some of our favourite bands and we were inundated with fan requests for them.

“We’re certain Thursday night will be one to remember and we can’t wait for the music to start.”

Tickets for the three-day event are available from www.twothousandtreesfestival.co.uk
