The Background
Born and raised at Hill Farm in Steventon, Oxfordshire Truck Festival is now in it’s seventh year.
Truck has gone from strength to strength, since it’s humble beginnings back in ‘98 : The site now has a capacity of 3000 and the festival has cultivated a reputation as being the UK’s only festival to showcase a vast array of music, often missed by other events.
This year we’ve enlarged the camping area ensuring that families of visitors have better provision, we’re also hosting a new stage (taking us to five in total) featuring acoustic acts as well as enlarging the kids area.
Still organised by a variety of Steventon natives, the people behind Truck Records and the band Goldrush, with like-minded support from promoters The Club That Cannot Be Named and Vinyl Frontier/ Depth Charge.
Truck Festival is not run for profit, apart from a rolling fund we retain to keep the festival site in good nick every penny we make goes into supporting charities, We made over £20,000 last year (over £3000 was made on banana milkshake alone) for various charities from Art Therapy to Mali Redevelopment.
Our wholesome approach means that unlike all other festivals the food is cheap (and served up with a friendly smile from the local Rotary Club), the beer (cheap, also) is poured by men dressed as ladies, the real ale from the codgers bar is the finest around or if it's ice cream you’re after, why not talk to the local vicar, who's flogging ices, in aid of his church light fund.
Tickets go on sale now available from www.truckrecords.com
Priced £25 until the end of June; or £35 thereafter.
