🕛 11:45AM – 11:00PM
Hey rockers, hip hop-ers and everybody all around the world...! (lyrics courtesy of Limp Bizkit who btw are not performing tribute or otherwise🤫 )

So who's up for Fake Festival at Victoria Park — an all-day event with a big marquee, live tribute bands, bar, and food stalls. It’s a solid one if you’re up for a relaxed day with good music and a festival vibe without the full weekend commitment.
Here’s the band lineup:

  • Green Date (Green Day) – 12:45PM
  • Enjoy The Silence UK (Depeche Mode) – 2:30PM
  • Blondied (Blondie) – 4:15PM
  • Bon Jovi Experience (Bon Jovi) – 6:00PM
  • Fleeting Rumours (Fleetwood Mac) – 7:45PM
  • Fore Fighters (Foo Fighters) – 9:45PM

Music runs through the day, there’s an outdoor bit next to the marquee to sit and chill, drinks are on tokens (bit of a festival setup), and there’s all the usual food options – burgers, curry, pizza, crepes, ice cream, that kind of thing. I think all in a big covered tent in case it rains.
Tickets are about £35–£40 for adults, cheaper for under 18s, and kids under 10 go free with an adult. No on-site parking, but it’s walkable and near town.

I (Phil) will not be attending btw, Pete will be doing all the planning and organising for this as I will be at Boomtown raving; big fish, little fish, cardboard box style, so any general queries, ask big man Pete ...!

The plan:
I assume its going to be heading down for midday-ish to catch the early acts and grab a decent spot. If that works and anyone fancies that, feel free to drop a message into the Whatsapp. Come solo or with mates — no stress either way. It’s just a decent excuse to get outside, sink a few drinks, and enjoy a bunch of tunes you’ll know all the words to
