Tickets are priced at £27.50, subject to booking fee. Subject to availability, tickets will increase in price from June 1st to £37.50. Available online from wegottickets.com

It's like Glastonbury probably used to be but with a truck parked in the middle of a field and a barn stage, which is in fact a barn. If you've not been before, perhaps some seasoned festival goers can comment below in no less than 50 words why you should go...
