Rewind Festival 17th – 19th August 2012

Rewind 80s Festival returns for its fourth year from Friday 17th August – Sunday 19th August at Temple Island Meadows. As with last year’s unforgettable concert performances and audience participation celebrations, this year’s Rewind Festival includes another incredible live outdoor line-up of the crème de la crème of 80s recording artists/performers.

This year’s line-up is headlined by the legendary Kool & The Gang and synthpop pioneers OMD.  Other highlights include rare performances from The Bangles, Grandmaster Flash and Soul II Soul, plus the reformed original line-up of Five Star.  Also appearing in anticipation of British medal success at the London 2012 Olympics are Heather Small (Proud, Search for the Hero) and Tony Hadley (Gold), plus Starship, Rick Astley, T’Pau, Wang Chung, Marc Almond, Roland Gift, Sinitta, Right Said Fred, Lightning Seeds and many more.

In addition to the unforgettable jam-packed August weekend of 80s music, Rewind Festival will also features loads of additional highlights ranging from Silent Discos to Live Karaoke bars along with Camping and Glamping (Glamorous Camping) options. 

New to the festival in 2012 will be Jamie Oliver’s “Fabulous Feasts” and “The Grand Palace of Entertainment” (as seen on Channel 5’s Fairground Attraction); converted into an acoustic and comedy bar.  For those festival goers who want a little extra comfort, we also have new for 2012 the ultimate in festival toilets – When Nature Calls – featuring the state of the art vacuum flush toilets, warm hand wash and uniformed attendants.
