The theme for the wildly popular fancy dress day on Saturday will be ‘Legends’.

The last few discounted Early Bird tickets – where adult weekend camping tickets are £75, and a family of four can enjoy the weekend for just £220 - are available until 31st December. Shortly after this date, the first major line up announcement will be made. As introduced back in 2012, all children under 12 can attend the festival for free (ticket is required).

Set in 70 acres of farmland on the edge of Dartmoor, Chagstock is renowned for its stunning location, diverse line-up of artists and non-corporate, family friendly atmosphere. Chagstock showcases the very best music, food and entertainment that the Westcountry and the UK have to offer. Starting life as a small private party, Chagstock has now grown into a major fixture on the Westcountry festival circuit, selling out all 5,000 tickets for the last four years in succession.

Last year’s festival was regarded by many as the best yet (“Chagstock has something special... other events should perhaps take note and try and emulate it” – efestivals) and featured memorable performances from the likes of Levellers, New Model Army, Seth Lakeman, Neville Staple, Molotov Jukebox and many many more

Simon Ford Chagstock Festival organiser says, “We are incredibly proud to be reaching the milestone of our 10th anniversary in 2016. Over the last nine years Chagstock has grown organically into fully-fledged festival which has hosted some huge acts from the UK and abroad. We can’t wait to share the line up with you - keep an eye on the website and facebook for updates, band announcements and all the Chagstock news you need...And of course, you can rely on the fact that we are keeping to the non-corporate vibe and family friendly atmosphere with loads of great and varied music, food and entertainment”

Chagstock Festival is a Not For Profit Organisation, proud to support Devon Air Ambulance Trust and WaterAid.
