Lunar Festival 2014
Friday 6th– Sunday 8th June 2014 – Umberslade Estate, Butts Ln, Tanworth in Arden, Warwickshire B94 5AE
Tickets from £35 to £85
Lunar Festival is brand new eclectic three day event for 2014. It’s set in the spiritual home of Nick Drake, Tanworth In Arden. In honour of his now legendary work, each night there will be an exclusive and intimate playing of one of Nick’s albums on his very own record player. Five Leaves Left (1969), Bryter Layter (1970) and Pink Moon (1972) will be aired out in the woods, music drifting through the fields and lanes of his ancestral family home, adding a true sense of magic to proceedings.
In the day, the Lunar Festival offers a myriad of activities for all ages including The Lunar Olympics, Green Crafts, 360 Cinema Dome, Yoga Sessions, Cigar box Guitar Lessons and Sausage Making workshops. As the night time falls and the warm summery days close, the Lunar festival comes alive with some of the best Midlands club nights including Magic Door with The Jukes of Hazard & Deano Ferrino, Sensateria with Andy Votel & Richard Norris, Silver Dollar with Don Letts, Balkanic Eruption with The Destroyers and This Is Tmrw with DJ Food.
