Decades @ B10

So it’s our 10th anniversary/birthday hoe-down at Bradley Farm this year and we want you to get into the party theme by dressing “Decades” on the Saturday!

Culminating in “The Birthday Party” at the second stage the feel of the evening will be a celebration of the past and future.
There you go, surely we’ve given you big enough scope to get dressed to impress!
We are not fussy, pick a decade from just after The Big Bang to one in your vision of the future, and we will be happy.

So are you going to come 80ies..............15250BCies....................................2150ies, or something else entirely

"The 80ies"?....................................."The 15250BCies"?....................................."The 2150ies"?

The Birthday Party and Birthday Boys and Girls!

As well as being the themed day for this years festival, on the Saturday we want all birthday boys and girls to make themselves known to us so they can join us in a special birthday surprise at “The Birthday Party” in the second stage from 11pm onwards.  Everyone will be there with great DJ’s helping to bring the event to a tumultuous conclusion, so don’t miss out!

Open Mic Friday

Although we have not released the lineup yet we can exclusively reveal here that if you have bought your ticket for this year YOU could be on the bill at Blissfields 2010.
Once again musical laughter, wonder, tears and disasters will be on tap for two hours on the second stage!
On Friday at 11.00pm once the main stage closes just roll up ready to entertain the crowds on the second stage. You’ll have to fight through the hordes of like minded people to get picked but fame could be yours for the taking.

Be warned the evening will be compered by ex-wrestler Brett  Summers (Mintsouth) and he does not put up with any messing!
The D.I.Y. Friday night shenanigans has always been a huge part of the entertainment on our first night, so make sure even if you are not performing that you are there to applaud, heckle or cry!

Volunteer as a steward

Bert and Bob are now recruiting stewards for Blissfields 2010… Come and enjoy a fantastic weekend  for free by volunteering as a steward.  Signup at www.splooshlive.co.uk
or email here

These people need your help!
These people need your help!

Stewards are an important part of the workings of any festival, helping with parking, ticketing, site patrols, wristband checks and so much more. You will see a different side of a festival attending as part of the team and many never look back, taking their experience on to other events.
You will have to work a minimum of three 6 hour shifts over the weekend (Thurs -Sunday), have to be available from Thursday 1st July for training and pay a fully refundable deposit (equal to a weekend ticket), which will be refunded within a week of the event if you have performed to our satisfaction.

Potential stewards have to be 18 yrs minimum, not be in charge of children over their shift and have a responsible attitude to their work. Last year the stewards had to turn away many volunteers as the places were full so apply early and any relevant past experience will help.

The Independent 2009 review: “The absolute pearl of Blissfields though was the Hidden Hedge. Tucked behind the kids play area and circus camp, amid the Hampshire trees, was a secluded “anything goes” disco full of lasers, couches and breathtakingly verbose dance tunes, going on until whatever time in the morning people could last.”

Keep up with whats going to be occuring at  The Hidden Hedge Facebook Event.

Artist applications now closed

Due to the record number of applications to play the festival this year we have had to close the opportunity for any more to apply. We have been totally snowed under with hopeful acts and would like to thank everyone who has contacted us. Every one has been listened to and considered by us and we are incorporating a number into the line-up. We will be contacting these lucky acts but do not have the resources to reply to those who weren’t succesful, once again thanks for contacting us.

Our line-up is shaping up to be very exciting and we should be releasing the first announcement soon so keep an eye on our posts.
