The festival has also recently firmed up on their plans for 2012:

The Willowman Festival is all set to run in 2012 for its third year after rapidly gaining momentum and a reputation for an outstanding musical line up. The event will once again bring many new, several well established, and some iconic bands and musicians together in an eclectic mix of music - with something to suit everybody.  The festival offers the perfect break in a beautiful rural area of North Yorkshire. Situated between two National Parks the festival really does offer a tranquil setting with a safe environment for children, and lots of different things to keep them occupied, while the parents enjoy a well thought out and relaxed atmosphere.

They had a great festival in 2011 with a weekend of top quality music, strange robots and stilt walking fairies, good quality food, trade stalls and an exciting children’s area within a safe environment. They only had one damp evening - but that didn’t stop the party!

“We feel that it was a success and has quickly established itself on the festival circuit” says Steve Williams, Festival Director

If you came in 2011 you can expect more arts crafts and a complete Healing Area set in a tranquil position within the festival site. There will be Indian head massage, Shiatsu massage and Spiritual talks along with Card readings and Pagan Stone readings. For those of us who appreciate retro clothing and a Bohemian atmosphere - this year they will be hosting an undercover Vintage Market, a Chill Out Tent with an Open Mic Stage and their very own Willowman Arms Real Ale late bar.

The festival site will open around lunchtime on Thursday 21st June when they will be having a special Solstice Party to kick off the weekend.

 Friday they promise a Special headline music act on their main stage making a great start to the dancing, along with several other great artists making appearances on both stages along with featured DJ’s all weekend.

Saturday will see a day of quality music featuring the Festival‘s main act. With two music stages fully booked they have decided to add an Acoustic Open mic Stage so bring your guitars and other instruments along. This will be in the new Chill Out Tent where you will be able to buy drinks and snacks while you sit in charming surroundings…. sing along or just CHILL!!!!

Sunday they have several additions too; a craft market, a Treasure Hunt, and lots more to be confirmed. The festival site will close late on Sunday evening.
