Vince Power commented, “I am pleased to announce the sixth Hop Farm line up this
year, which includes headliners My Bloody Valentine, exclusive to the Hop Farm Festival, off the back of their much awaited new album. Plus I’m excited to add international folk legend Rodriguez to the bill this year. Searching for Sugar Man, has  just won an Academy Award and a BAFTA, so this is a very special year to welcome him to the Hop Farm. Last year has been tough for me, as it has been across the  board for the festival market. I wanted to keep the festival going, but I’ve had to  make changes for it to continue.”

The festival will feature its three stages – Main Stage, The Wild Wood and Oast House
stages as well as the The Shindig stage in the Campsite. Buskers Boulevard is to return
as well new features The Campsite Choir, Marching Bands, Fun Fair and Children’s
Area. Audiences can see some great-established acts and well as emerging musical
talents that festival fans won’t always get the opportunity to see elsewhere. The Hop
Farm maintains its original 70s festival feel with its roots firmly set in creating a great
atmosphere. The festival will have a capacity of 10,000 this year allowing the organisers to remain committed to delivering a fantastic weekend of music whilst maintaining their No Sponsorship/Branding.
