Vince is delighted to announce that this year Hop Farm Festival will go ahead on the 4th & 5th of July, especially as licensing issues had held up this year’s event unnecessarily. This year will be a two-day festival, with camping, set in the grounds of the picturesque Hop Farm, Paddock Wood, Kent.

Hop Farm Festival
The Hop Farm Festival returns as a truly unique experience, exclusively themed as an event totally free of ticket registration, with No VIP areas, No Branding or Sponsorship. This year the festival offers a weekend experience of boutique camping, top-notch food and traditional ales, with some of the best artists playing over 3 stages. It is a festival for festival- goers, returning live music to its roots, where music lovers turn up and enjoy the same experience as every other ticket holder. Weekend tickets are £125.00 inc camping and parking and with day tickets at £65.00, its one of the cheapest festival tickets available.
Vince Power said: “After some delay due to our licensing issues, we have managed to get a great line up off the ground in time for 2009, with an expected audience of 20,000. I’m very pleased with the bands, over 70 across the weekend, and £125 for a weekend ticket inc camping and car parking, making this best value festival ticket this year. I’m looking forward to the weekend in July”
