The Mighty Boosh Festival

• 21st Apr 2008

Dalston’s biggest export The Mighty Boosh – Stars of three hit BBC TV series, is set to make entertainment history with a unique open air festival this summer at The Hop Farm in Kent.

Entertaining 30,000 fans, the award winning (Perrier Award winners 1998, NME Award winners 2007/2008, RTS Award winners 2008) duo Julian Barratt and Noel Fielding AKA Howard Moon and Vince Noir, will delight revellers with their magical and comical wizardry and take us on a hilarious journey from their Nabootique homeland to the very ends of the comedy universe!

Life in Kent will never seem the same again when the duo descend from planet Boosh on 5th of July with a fusion of world class comedy, peppered with some of the music world’s biggest names, creating Europe’s most unique and spectacular festival experience.

The Boosh is also revered in the musical world and rub shoulders with the great and the good of the music scene. The festival will therefore perfectly fuse the finest musical acts with their own spectacle, with the boys inviting some of their own special favourites to take to the stage with them!

Promoters Vince Power and Phil McIntyre say “We thought long and hard about putting on a comedy festival and convinced the Mighty Boosh that they were the right choice for the 1st major open air comedy festival of it’s kind.”

The Hop Farm is the perfect place this July to enjoy the spectacle– a live cacophony of comedy, accompanied by lashings of musical loveliness. Expect controlled chaos and organised confusion – a perfect summer feast of insane rock and roll!

Noel Fielding says ““We'’ve never played a music festival before and a comic has never headlined at a festival before so we are seizing the opportunity and doing both!'”

Full line up to be announced shortly for one of the hottest festivals this Summer.
