Firefly Music Festival (Music)

Location:5 miles from Ludlow

Time:12:00:00

The idea for Firefly Festival came about one balmy evening last summer around a campfire. We decided we wanted to create a festival with some really good bands, the best of new ones emerging, locally and nationally maintaining an intimate and friendly atmosphere in beautiful surrounding countryside with camping in the field next door.
We are proud of our eclectic and exciting line up, ranging from the internationally renowned Scott Matthews, NME’s ‘new favorites’ Chew Lips, Ivor Novello nominee Patch William, some fierce local talent such as Apples and Muchuu and popular DJs to see us through the night. For full line up, check the website.

The Festival is on the 31st. July - 1st. August 2010 at Elton, 5 miles from Ludlow. Music will run from 2pm on Saturday to the early hours of Sunday. Tickets available from website only! No tickets will be sold on the door! Hurry though as tickets are strictly limited!

Stereophonies (Music)

Location:The Ironworks, Oswestry

Time:21:00:00 to 23:30:00

If you like The Stereophonics and also like not having to travel far to see them live, then you're in for a treat. Pitch perfect renditions of all their greatest tunes, all in your own backyard. Not literally - you'd probably have to pay more than six pounds for that.
