Thank you so much for a brilliant day on Saturday
Our sheep just loving the wildflowers on the green stage at RG27rocks. Just 50 tickets left now folks so if you are coming, get your skates on.
Weather looking largely dry but bring something to keep warm as we are expecting about 20 degrees in the evening and a southerly breeze.
And if you haven’t sent us your favourite Rolling Stones track to add to the possible play list by our headline act Stones UK, then email event@RG27rocks.co.uk now.
They say it’s hard to get a face to face appointment with a doctor these days but we’ve managed to get you a whole band made of Doctors and Nurses - The Mantons. Originally formed to provide music for the Winchester and Basingstoke Hospital Annual Pantomine, they now do fund raising gigs around the area for Cancer and other good causes. Just the band for our NHS fund raiser – Luca
Last year’s event raised over £850 which is now trickling down into the Basingstoke and Winchester Hospital Trust Staff Wellbeing and incentives program. Not bad for a 12 year old rock promoter! Luca (now 13!) is hoping to get over the magic £1000 figure this year and is promising to brave the stage and play his sax again, accompanying one of the bands - an event certainly not to be missed. Get your tickets now. If you buy a Gazebo pitch, all the money goes into his pot for the NHS.
We’ve had a few enquiries about what drinks will be available -If real ale is not your bag, Siren will be bringing a selection of white and red wine, prosecco, gin, cider, coke, diet coke, fancy lemonades etc to cater for all tastes. And don’t forget, Caleb’s Coffee’s will have shakes on their menu https://www.calebscoffee.co.uk/menu
Due to the Covid reschedule from our earlier July date, we’ve had a change with our catering and here is our latest addition of mouth-watering food. Star of many well known festivals is the HorseTrough, a bright yellow trailer with a range of veggie, vegan and meat dishes. Currently on the proposed menu is a Beef Chilli hot pot and rice, a Veggie curry suitable for vegans and Spaghetti Pomodoro with parmesan. But if you have a great idea let us know at event@Rg27rocks.co.uk and we will ask for you! The chef can only say neigh!
This morning checking the stunning Union Jack balloon is ready for tethering at the RG27rocks festival with headliners Imagine the Beatles plus many more bands. Only a few early bird tickets left! Get your tickets
Great news for you coffee lovers, (and did we mention a bit of cake??!!) - Caleb's Coffee is coming to RG27rocks and will be offering locally roasted artisan coffee and home-made cakes. You can choose from a hot coffee to an iced coffee, a frappe to a milkshake. See the full menu here
With the countdown to RG27ROCKS proceeding we are pleased to announce the addition of Farnham based Congakeyz to our musical line up. See more here. We will update you with the approximate timings and running order nearer to the day so keep an eye on the web site in the meantime. Looking forward to meeting all you ticket holders on what will be a great day. If you have friends who are coming, we are limited in the number of tickets we can sell so do tell them to get on and book soon. Its only four weeks away...
With the changes to Step 4 of the road map made a week ago, we had to cancel our 17th July date. However, we are now delighted to confirm that all our musicians and event partners are able to make our new date of Saturday 14th August. Timings and running orders on the day may change a little from the original program and there is more to come on the line up so keep an eye on the web site as we approach the 14th August. There are a handful of early bird tickets left so book a bargain now.
To give everyone a great view, we have taken some spare earth to raise the ground the stage will sit on. Here’s the digger making the first mark in the ground...
