Field Day

Field Day Festival

When: August 9

Where: Victoria Park, London

What: Music is the main driver of this one-day event but you can also try your luck on the tombola, crack a few nuts on the coconut shy - or just sit on some haybales and stuff your face with homemade cake. Inspired by summer sports days and country fetes - Village Mentality's Village Green will host stalls and activities throughout the daytime, ranging from sack-racing to whack the rat to the "eat as many carrots as you can" contest, and the infamous Tug Of War. Come along, have fun and as the country saying goes "be like an ant in the days of summer".

Due to technical problems the full line-up is not yet available on NME.COM for Field Day festival. Visit www.fielddayfestivals.com for the full line-up details.

Tickets: £26.50
