Lastly, The Australian Pink Floyd Show will bring the festival to a close on Sunday 6th July with an astonishing performance and “must be seen to be believed” spectacular lightshow that’s sure to provide GuilFest with an incredible, un-missable finale!

Just confirmed – psychedelic multi-platinum selling rockers, Kula Shaker will support Blondie on Saturday night! Expect to hear a set of classics from the seminal first two albums “K” and “Peasants, Pigs and Astronauts” combined with fresh tracks from their 2007 album “Strangefolk”.

There will be over 200 more fantastic acts announced over the coming weeks for what will definitely be an amazing line up.

Held in the idyllic grounds of Stoke Park, visitors to GuilFest (voted UKs best family festival in 2006) can expect a great weekend of live music, comedy, children’s entertainment, street theatre, art and crafts, delicious food from around the world and a truly festive atmosphere.
