Secret Garden Party Strikes Again!

• 9th Jul 2008

Once again the Secret Garden Party has struck gold. With just two weeks to go until the gates open into the magical land of the wacky and wonderful the Head Gardeners knew better, once again, and booked the best before we'd even heard their names.

Now you should be scrambling to get your place in the beautiful gardens. Visit the offical SGP website to get all the information and your tickets here: link

Come to see the UK's most exciting new talent that includes The Whip, Glasvegas, Infadels, Metronomy, Hush The Many, Inner City Pirates, Absentee, Florence and the Machine and many more. Then there's the Scandenavian invasion with the Shout Out Louds, Lacrosse, Olafur Arnalds and Lykke Li all sailing to the Garden's lake shores – pictured by Glasswerk, SGP 2007. And to top it off there's Brazilian funk from Bonde Do Role and Kentucky fried rock from Cage The Elephant.

That's without even mentioning an extremely rare and exclusive UK festival performance from Grace Jones and heavyweight champions Zero 7, Morcheeba and Sons and Daughters.

You can split your time between the Great 'shark' Stage and intimate performances while eating crumpets. Why not take in a snail race, a suicide ironing board or tricycle race down a slippy slope and make your own tombstone before lying back to the ultra chilled out grooves of Ratatat.

It really is another world. An offbeat, oddball weekend and when you're there it all makes perfect sense. This here this is perfect and you there you're nowhere. The secret is out, but only 6,000 can get that golden ticket: £125 – Adult weekend ticket, £100 – 14-17 years weekend ticket, Under 14s go free. The festival runs from 24 – 27 July at a 'secret' garden near Huntingdon, Cambridgeshire.
