Loading ...Guilfest 2009 @ Stoke Park - Description
Not too big, not too small, Guilfest remains an independently run festival with a very friendly atmosphere, held in the beautiful surroundings of Stoke Park, Guildford over the weekend of the 10th, 11th and 12th July 2009. Visitors can expect a weekend of live musical entertainment coupled with comedy, children´s entertainment, street theatre, theatre tent, art/craft exhibitions, and caterers from around the world providing a variety of meals in a truly festive atmosphere.
With its 150 foot beer tent and calypso cocktail bar, an extensive KidZone and well maintained toilet trailers, Guilfest caters for young and old alike, to local visitors wanting to just come for the day, to families from further a field camping for a 3 day mini holiday! Guildford´s outdoor swimming Lido and Spectrum Leisure Centre on either side of the festival grounds offer easy breaks from the main festival site with a refreshing swim as well as a showering opportunity for the campers. All in all, Guilfest has something for everyone with its friendly relaxed vibe and eclectic mix of music and entertainment, so come along and see for yourself why we´ve been nominated as best family and medium sized festival for the past 3 years.

GUILFEST SAT 11 JULY 12PM THE UNISON TENT WILLB AND THE BIKINI BLACK SPECIAL
Well they’ve done the pubs the festivals and the acoustics for love and no money and for money for other people they’ve got fans in Surrey and London and Africa and all over the world where their music has drawn in cash for the starving and the vulnerable the ill and the poor…they’ve made up songs on the spot about bull terriers and kebabs and bought more percussion and hats on the way, on their journey as troubadours happily striding the land with their tunes and somehow for good reason and just for good anyway here they are at Guilfest where better for compassionate scribes and poets of note to peddle those tunes, shout them out and they’ll tune them up and out on the spot, bashing a drum and dance and dance and swing and sing and you will always remember the experience of Will B and the Bikini Black Special on a Saturday in July……..
If you are at Guilfest and want to see a show and feel a glow make sure you go where the Bikini Black flows….
