Site 1 - Camp as you always have
It's your Festival, so when you speak we listen and that is just what we have done this year with regard to camp sites. They will stay just as you like them and we will continue to look for improvements along the way.

The Bus is Back!
The vintage London Transport Routemaster Bus is back for its third year. This great edition to the Festival provides a quick and easy link to Thame (the nearby town), with whom the Festival has close links. So hop on board, get to the cash machine, visit Thame or just enjoy the experience of a London bus in the beautiful Oxfordshire countryside.

Shooting Roots
The original and the best - Shooting Roots is the Youth programme run for young people by young people and is probably the leading Folk Festival Youth programme in the country! This year will see a further improved venue in The Hive and wall-to-wall, non-stop music, song, dance and theatre and good times for all 12-25 year olds. Come once and you'll never look back!

The Imagined Village

The Imagined Village

The Music So Far
A mighty Towersey line-up begins to take shape and what a line-up it is. Headliners include the ground breaking The Imagined Village (with its all star cast including Martin and Eliza Carthy, Chris Wood and Simon Emerson). Then we have The Waterson Family, The Karine Polwart Band, Edward II, Devon Sproule, Shooglenifty ...... the list goes on. With more big names to come, it's going to be another packed programme.

New Stages, New Spaces, New Look
We always strive to improve, while keeping an eye on the past and this year is no different.

The Concert Stage
will be bigger and have a more flexible audience space, so more of you will get under canvas and watch the show how you want to watch it.

To replace the Arena we are introducing three new stages to the expanded Showground with a packed day long programme of Streat Theatre, Dance, Spectacle and more.

We are opening an Acoustic Stage in The Hive for those who want a quieter late night and we are building The Den - a new "chill out" space on Site 2 with a Library, Tea and Cakes and we are working on some Visual Art - a place to get away from it all and kick back with fellow campers.

Tickets selling faster than ever.........No, they really are!
We know it's a cliché but tickets are selling faster than ever before, especially for Site 1. We are miles ahead of any previous year and they show no signs of slowing so please don't miss out! This is not scaremongering or clever selling tactics, it is a genuine plea to all those who know and love Towersey. We would hate for you to miss your favourite Festival.

The Waterson Family
A rare chance to see the big family line-up of the "First Family of Folk". Coming straight from the National Concert Hall in Dublin to be with us on Monday, this is an opportunity to see Mike Waterson, his daughters and wife, as well as the late Lal Waterson's children Ollie Knight and Maria Gilhooley, alongside the Waterson:Carthy line-up of Norma Waterson, Martin and Eliza Carthy and Saul Rose.

 


What Makes Towersey Special - The Real Village
This year we are lucky enough to have The Imagined Village headlining in the Festival Dance House, but last year fRoots (national publication for Folk and Roots Music), did a huge feature write up of Towersey 2008 and nothing has ever better captured what makes this Festival so special.
