Note that although the Festival as a whole has as relaxed an atmosphere as you could hope for, at The Mines they have raised it to an art form. Players come and go throughout the weekend. You'll find anything could happen here...and it very often does.

But the Saturday line-up includes:

Daniel Smith

The Laxey Skiffle and Fishpaste Trio

Rebels without Applause

Enormous

Wossawudu

Jackie Oliver


SUNDAY AFTERNOON May 18
The Chillout session.

This is probably the place to be for the post fest wind-down. In previous years this session has often turned into something very special indeed and so far includes:

Guy Tortora

and any survivors who want to chill

If you fancy something more "up" try the Queens Hotel.




Please note that details may change - things are organised well in advance which gives plenty of opportunity for all kinds of organisational hiccoughs. But we're pretty laid back about this and we hope that you are too.
