We believe that un-pasturised Somerset Cider is seriously underrepresented nationwide
- even in the West Country!
Our aim is to celebrate local cider with a three day family fete featuring local
acts, artists and performers thus promoting a large range of traditional Somerset
ciders. Early last year we started hatching plans to organise a local festival.
In 2006, Recydrate had a fantastic atmosphere and was a resounding local
success. The feedback was exceptionally positive; from the organisers, the public,
and the Wiltshire council and police. Despite Sunday’s weather problems and unfortunate
clash with an England World Cup football match the fete was a complete success.
This year we are creating a similar environment while moderately increasing the
size of the event.
This year's festival will cost £35 plus a booking fee, this will include 2 nights
camping. Tickets will be available soon. Sign up to the mailing list and we'll
let you know as soon as they become available and where to get them or just keep
checking back on here.
Well what can say this we've made some improvements to the fete this year include:
- a brand new location
- a car park and campervan/caravan field
- full weekend camping
- the Apple Orchard (hammocks, cider education, and the Cheery Bomb Cafe)
- a Bigtop, hosted by The
Invisible Circus showcasing a variety of cabaret acts
- ID Cidrall Chill Out Area
- a large marquee hosted by the southwest’s finest up coming musicians, and
- a cinema and play area for children
