After the sell out success of 2008, Festibelly have developed their boutique festival for another wonderful weekend this summer. Set in the peaceful surroundings of the New Forest, Festibelly provides a chilled day, party night time, camping and – what so many festivals lack – intimacy, with a capacity of only 1000 people.

2009 features musical performances from some of the most exciting talent to emerge from the indie, rock, pop, acoustic, and reggae scenes. After his astonishing 2008 performance, Festibelly welcome back ‘folktronica’ wizard James Yuill as headliner. Signed to Moshi Moshi Records, James has released a plethora of hits, such as ‘No Surprise’ and ‘This Sweet Love gaining huge support from BBC Radio 1 and was even an iTunes track of the week.

The strong line up continues with Rough Trade signings Micachu & The Shapes, grime pop upstarts Man Like Me, critically acclaimed ensemble Laurel Collective and future-romantic pop group ColouringIN. They are joined by London’s favourite reggae party, Reggae Roast who will be ‘dubbing’ it alongside live performances by Brother Culture and the heavyweight 9-piece brass band, Brass Roots!

More festival antics will be provided by local hero’s, The Operators, East London indie-outfit, The Pepys, Tarrbaby, Jazica, RWD, Rob Cowen & The Dissidents and a fierce selection of DJs including Sombrero Sound System and Sunday Best’s Fear of Theydon!



If that wasn’t enough Festibelly 2009 will be engaging your other senses with activities including Secret Wars hosing urban artists battling it out in the form of a tag-team competition on a giant wall.

Festibelly also supports neighbouring traders and provides delicious and sophisticated food from local sources, catering for both meat eaters and vegetarians. The Festibar will also be stocked with a plentiful supply of soft drinks and alcoholic beverages.

Festibelly has a safe and friendly atmosphere and welcomes people of all ages. A responsible ticket-baring adult over the age of 21 must accompany any ticket holders under the age of 18.

Festibelly provides clean toilets (something highly commented on last year, as some of the best ever seen at a festival) with washbasins, mirrors and lighting. For a small one-day event we hope people can last without a shower.

Festibelly is easily accessible by train and the site is just a 10-minute walk from Lymington station. If travelling from London there is a regular train service from London Waterloo to Brockenhurst, to which you can then change to a one-stop service to Lymington. To discuss car-sharing routes, why not use the Festibelly Facebook group?

Wildlife roams freely, please drive carefully and respect the environment. No glass objects will be allowed onto the Festibelly site.

Please note, tickets will not be available at the gate and there will be no entrance to anyone without a valid ticket. All tickets must be purchased prior to the event
