Into the woods: Leeds festival with a difference...
Mike_Diver by Mike Diver June 21st, 2006

THIS IS NOW CANCELLED. SORRY! PLEASE REFER TO THE WEBSITE FOR DETAILS

Alternative music-loving locals to the Leeds area are in for a treat this July, as the Oats And Groats festival is to be held in the woodland of Hunters Greave.

The three-day event takes place from July 7 until July 9, and features a wide variety of acts. All bands will perform in a clearing, lit by lanterns and camp fires. Organic vegetarian food will be available, and local craft stalls will sell a myriad of goodies.

Tickets - £20 for three days or a tenner for one - are available from Crash Records and Jumbo Records in Leeds, but they can also be purchased online by visiting the festival's website, here.

A totally DIY event, the line-up currently looks like this...
