There are a few full weekend tickets left and if a full weekend party is a little too much to handle we've got a handful of Friday or Saturday tickets.

Not long to go now until 499 festival 2025!
Here's the latest poster with the full lineup. It's the 6th year already!
I can highly recommend this event to anyone that is new to festivals that include camping. Very laid back and friendly with some really high quality local bands of all sorts of genres. Check the page linked below for more info.

There are roughly 50 weekend tickets left for this cosy little camp-out music festival. Perfect for first timers wanting to test the water with their tent or campervan, surrounded by good friends and great live music.
Live music starts from 7pm Friday and 4pm Saturday with a mixture of originals bands and party cover bands. Expect Rock, Punk, Ska, Folk, Pop, Indie, Club and some classic 80s/90s.
The cheap can bar starts from just £2 (Carling, Strongbow), Real Ale (Grey Horse Brewery) just £3/Pint. We also have a pizza bar with pizzas and quesadillas cooked to order. Alongside us is a great cocktail bar and outside of the marquee you'll find a lovely food van with a great selection at fantastic value prices.
