Due to the growth in audience numbers in recent years the event is being extended to run over two days and will now feature more music and entertainment than past events. The festival is a fun day out for the whole family and aims to offer something for audiences of all ages.

The festival features 6 stages of live music which will bring more than 150 musicians, over 40 bands and artists to Stamford and the Riverside stage will be the main festival stage for the Saturday featuring a wide variety of music from local bands and guest artists from across the UK.

The Sunday Riverside Stage is a new addition and will feature an eclectic mix of world, classical, blues, jazz and progressive music from local bands and orchestras.

The Marquee Stage will be dedicated to indie, emo, metal, rock, thrash and nu and old skool punk music and the Acoustic Stage will be providing a platform for acts that have an acoustic, folk, jazz, world and blues influence.

The festival also features a Buskers Stage which is a more spontaneous and informal affair where artists can pre book a 20 minute slot to play or just turn up on the day and try and secure a vacant slot to perform
