2017 FESTIVAL GUIDE
NORFOLK & NORWICH FESTIVAL 12-28 MAY
VENUES AROUND NORWICH
Ah, and if it’s May, it must be time for Norfolk and Norwich Festival, one of the oldest surviving arts festivals in the UK. After seven years at the helm, this will be director William Galinsky’s final year in charge. Once again the team are bringing a wealth of cultural and fun delights to our fine city in an attempt to entertain and educate us Norwichians (?). The super special Spiegeltent will be setting up camp in Chapelfield Gardens again, and you’ll see some great bands, cabaret, dances and kids activities therein, as well as the ever popular outside bar which runs til late and the annual Garden Party. Check out the breathtaking Museum of the Moon outside the Forum, spend the night at the Assembly House with The Arms Of Sleep, travel around in a cutaway bus in Rear View, discover some new writers at The Story Machine and the new Literature Tent, get avant-garde with Laurie Anderson and Philip Glass at the Theatre Royal, or spend a day experiencing the facets of the seasons in Summer. Autumn. Winter. Spring. There’s so much I can’t fit it all in, but do check out the full line up at nnfestival.
org.uk. Remember they offer a limited number of £7.50 tickets for under 26’s where available. See you down the Spiegel yo!

Why slap my thigh and call me Betsy! Red Rooster’s back, championing the very best in RnB, Americana, Blues, Soul, Roots and Country. Get a true taste of the Deep South’s tunes, grub and culture. Located in the beautiful surrounding park and woodlands of Euston Hall in Suffolk, Red Rooster attracts music fans and families, creating an enchanting, laidback, non-pretentious, easy atmosphere, where families can enjoy lip-smacking authentic ribs and soul food by a campfire under the stars, or your whole kit and caboodle can get down and dirty to the raucous sounds radiating from the woodland’s main stage venue. There’s croquet, and paddling, and dancing, and beautiful grounds to explore. With a weekend camping ticket priced at just £55, and kids going free, what’s not to love? Already announced for this year are Nick Lowe, JD McPherson, Nick Waterhouse, Barrence Whitfield and the Savages, Danny and the Champions of the World, Guadalupe Plata and The Rockingbirds amongst many others.
