The second-ever Bigfoot Festival is set to take place this June, running from the 17th til the 19th of the month. After their inaugural set last year, the UK’s first-ever craft beer music festival is back, stronger than ever. Announcing their first two headliners, eighties ‘Madchester’ icons Happy Mondays and Canadian composer Caribou will be taking centre stage this summer, giving audiences something to enjoy as they make their way through the copious amounts of drink on offer.
And there will be drinking! A small selection of the various breweries announced as providing the goods include Braybrooke, Two Tribes and Verdant, so there’s plenty for everyone.
Some of the supporting line-up includes artists such as Self Esteem, Working Men’s Club and Erol Alkan, more of which can be seen below. A third headliner is also set to be announced sometime soon so keep a look out for more information. Further updates can be seen on their website here.

If you’re interested in attending the festival, tickets go on general sale this Friday, from 9 am GMT, and can be gotten here. It’ll be happening at Claydon Estate in Buckinghamshire and promises to be a good weekend for all. They’ve prepared resources for both experienced campers and those more used to the comforts of home, so take your pick.
From general camping (for the most steely and enthusiastic of campers) to the Tangerine Fields (with their pre-pitched tents), they’ve got everything. However, if you prefer your countryside with a bit of luxury, the boutique camping option might be more your style.
As for the headliners, if you want another opportunity to see Caribou in action, he’ll be attending the Wide Awake Festival in May, running from the 27th-28th of the month in London’s Brockwell Park, tickets for which can be gotten here.
As for Happy Mondays, they’ll be treating fans to a UK tour running throughout October and November later this year (as well as some dates from May to July). If you want more details on getting tickets, you can look here. If you want to see the tour dates, you can look below.
