The Rezillos, New Model Army & Dub Pistols headline Endorse It Fest


ENDORSE IT IN DORSET has announced that legendary Scottish new wave/punk band THE REZILLOS will headline this year’s Festival. They join cult heroes NEW MODEL ARMY and eclectic live dance band DUB PISTOLS as the 2011 headline acts. For the event that takes place between the 12th and 14th of August in Dorset.

The headliners complete an fabulous line-up of alternative and independent artists which mirror the festival’s strong non-corporate ethos. Other notable acts include Zodiac Mindwarp, Banco De Gaia, The Wurzels, Pronghorn, UK Subs, Citizen Fish, The Members, Subgiant. Peter & The Test Tube Babies, Dubmatix, Dan Days and over 50 others across seven stages, and more are being added on a regular basis.

Famous for its family friendly atmosphere and relaxed festival vibe, Endorse It returns after last year’s triumphant sell-out event for its eighth year at Oakley Farm in Sixpenny Handley, Dorset.

Festival Entertainment
In addition to the 7 stages hosting live music, entertainment comes from all quarters of the festival site, including the Casino Comedy Club, the Strummerville Campfire, the Pixie Chill field and a large Children’s Area. Completing the events are Scrumpy Sunday (complete with a performance by Cider-drinking legends The Wurzels!), Ladies’ Day and the ‘must-do’ festival experience; live punk karaoke with the world’s premier punk tribute band, Fat Drunk Stupid.

Family Friendly
Endorse it in Dorset is recommended by safeconcerts.com and children of all ages are well catered for. The theme for the children’s area this year is ‘Wild West’ with a dress-up theme for ‘Cowpunks and Indians’, so children of all ages are invited to bring their best Stetson or headdress and get ready for Sunday’s Hoedown.

Endorse it in the Community
Endorse it in Dorset works in close partnership with the local community. This year the local Scout Group is running the festival shop and will receive all profits from it. The festival’s bars serve locally pressed cider and our Endorse It’s own festival ale is brewed by a local brewery.

Tickets
As always, ticket prices are kept as low as possible – at just £78 for an adult weekend ticket including camping. This represents incredible value considering the quantity and quality of entertainment on offer. To maintain the festival’s intimate friendly atmosphere, the capacity is restricted to just 5000 tickets. After last year’s sell out event, festival-goers are advised to purchase tickets well in advance to avoid disappointment.

Tickets are priced at £78 (Adults), £38 (Under 16’s), £10 (Under 10’s). A Family Ticket for 2 Adults & 2 Children is £220. Car parking is £5 and Campervans £30. Booking fees apply.
