Teddy Rocks Announce Line Up For 2022

• 11th Nov 2021

Teddy Rocks was forced to move to 2022 due to the Coronavirus pandemic. The safety and well being of our audience, crew, and performers are of paramount importance.  Being a children’s cancer charity, our event brings a lot of young people who are fighting the disease to have a good time and we cannot risk their health.  We are delighted, however, to announce that most of our announced lineup for 2020/2021 will be with us in 2022!

Teddy Rocks festival director, Tom Newton: 

“Today we launch our biggest and best lineup yet with our first international headliner! We have survived brexit, and a pandemic, and we are still here ready to lead the charge in raising money for children with cancer. This event is more determined than ever to do good with an army of people to help get it over the line. Grab a ticket today and join the fight!

We want to say a massive thank you to anybody who has already purchased tickets before and during these unprecedented times. It really has kept us motivated and driven and reminds us that not only are we able to help children with cancer and their families, but we also provide local musicians with a platform and give young people the opportunity to share stages with bands that they aspire to. We simply cannot do this without you!”

As previously announced, there will be over 100 acts performing across the weekend with 4 stages, outdoor bars, incredible food stalls, and lots of family-friendly activities.  We are able to confirm the following performances so far with more to be announced!

Teddy Rocks Festival started from humble beginnings in a country pub, The Greyhound Pub in Blandford, North Dorset in 2012. Founder of TRF, Tom Newton (29), wanted to help fundraise for the charity Teddy20 which was started by his parents to raise money for children and families fighting Cancer after the sad loss of his brother, Ted Newton, who was 10 years old when he lost his life to a rare bone cancer. 

 In 2016, Teddy Rocks moved to a bigger site to increase capacity and in 2017 the festival took the plunge and relocated to an even bigger premises and secured a permanent license at its new home, Charisworth Farm, in Blandford Forum, Dorset,  where it can offer weekend camping and car parking alongside 4 stages and a host of food vendors, bars, and activities.

In 2019, the festival raised a whopping £107,943.  To this day all profits received from the sale of tickets are donated to Teddy20. The festival has raised over £250,000 with help from previous headliners which include: The Darkness, The Zutons, Feeder, Ash, Twin Atlantic, Modestep, Scouting For Girls, From The Jam, The Hoosiers, and Don Broco. In 2016, Tom Newton was awarded The Daily Mirror’s Pride of Britain ITV Fundraiser of the Year in the Meridian West region and Fundraiser of the Year by the south’s leading radio station Wave 105.
