We caught uo with the organiser in 2022, where Mark was keen to emphasise the festival’s remit;
“we are not a Rock and metal festival. Rock yes, but Rock covers everything from Coldplay to Metallica… There sometimes seems to be confusion over the name, but we take our name from our favourite resident Nessie, it’s nothing to do with metal music.”
Ticket details and further line-up news will be released in due course.
