“I heard a rumour” that you can’t keep a great festival down! Rewind Festival is bouncing back!
Following the Prime Minister’s step by step plan – the festival will be going ahead this year with a party planned like no other! “So, come on down and do what you’ve got to do” and make each “a night to remember.”
There are a few things that all attendees will be asked to do to ensure that Rewind proceeds safely, and everyone continues to look after each other. These will be a condition of entry to the festival and are simple, but very important to keep us all safe;
- If you are double jabbed you will need to download the NHS app and set up your NHS Covid Pass. You just need to pop in a few details once you have downloaded the NHS app and follow the ‘Get your NHS Covid Pass’ and follow the events instructions…. you can then download the Covid pass, print it at home just like you would a boarding pass and it means that if phone reception is an issue, you won’t be delayed by having a printout!
- If you are not double jabbed, you will need to do a Lateral Flow Test 36 hours before you plan to arrive on site. You can find out where to get these from on the government website here (all free of course) and then you register the results on the gov.uk website. They send you a text and an email and you just need to bring a printout to show when you arrive!
Especially created for the Rewind Festival, Saturday nights will close with Jimmy Somerville’s Big Band- Tastic Boogie – a hit packed show with a massive big band with brass, strings and special effect including the world’s biggest party popper, as well as special guest Sarah Jane Morris recreating their 1986 #1 single ‘Don’t Leave Me This Way’.
Sunday night will by headlined by the legendary Wet Wet Wet, making their Rewind Festival debut. Wet Wet Wet have sold in excess of 15 million singles and albums to date, featuring in the official UK charts for over a colossal 500 weeks and their albums have been certified 20 x platinum in the UK alone.
The Rewind festival will open with a unique show celebrating over 50 years since the formation of one of the world’s greatest rock bands – Queen. Queen Symphonic features a full symphony orchestra, a fantastic rock band and four soloist’s from the international productions of the musical We Will Rock You performing some of Queen’s greatest hits including We Will Rock You, Bohemian Rhapsody, Radio Ga Ga, We Are The Champions, A Kind Of Magic and many more.
And if all this isn’t enough, “say hello” to especially exciting news for 2021 – the launch of The Pink Flamingo Club in the Big Top, an 80’s themed nightclub, with headline DJs Pat Sharp, Gary Davies and Bruno Brooks spinning all your favourite 80’s tunes to keep the party atmosphere going well into the night! Each day will have celebrity DJs and live bands, kicked off each weekend with the legendary Uncle Funk & the Boogie Wonderband.
Sunday night will conclude with a fantastic firework display – what better way to end the weekend than with the skies being lit up with a stunning display.
And there’s more!!! Rewind Festival weekend is not just about who is performing on the main stage, but an event including other exciting entertainment such as Electro Picture Lounge, Silent Disco, funfair rides, kid- zone with entertainment for the little Rewinders, shops & stalls for jewellery, t-shirts, food & drink.
And if “love is all around” & you fancy tying the knot “come on and let it show” in full Rewind style in the
