Organisers have confirmed this year's Lakefest will go ahead.

The popular family festival at Eastnor Castle will be held between 12th-15th August.

In a statement, the festival said: "Just as Reading and Leeds festivals believe: that come August we will be officially allowed to come together again under the shadow of Eastnor Castle, and share something precious, something we had all come to take for granted."

"We're getting straight into the nitty gritty with local council and authority. Infrastructure is all in place, and we are one Saturday night headline act away from a full, and glorious house."

Last remaining Early Bird Tickers are on sale for a limited time.

Sunshine Radio is the Official Radio Station for Lakefest 2021.
