Barn Tent ceilidh

A caller teaches every dance first, so no partner or practice needed. Dances start at 14:30, 16:30, 19:00 and 21:00.

Twelve food stalls

Fish from the smoker, bread from the ovens, cider and soft drinks from the orchard hut. Open 11:00 until the last set.

Billed by size, headliners first. Times are when each set starts; the two stages are a three-minute walk apart.
