Further acts have been confirmed to play Signals Festival; The Charlatans, Tim Burgess and Tim Peaks will take the festival’s stage on 11th June 2022 and join the event’s impressive line-up. The festival will be held to celebrate Nottingham, Derbyshire and South Yorkshire’s music scene and aims to create a fun atmosphere for everyone.
Located in Derbyshire’s Crich Tramway Village, the event promises ticketholders a day full of music, culture and the arts. The one-day festival offers a wide variety of activities for everyone ranging from a woodland diner to a film marquee and bars located within the surrounding forest. Signals Festival is advertised as a family-friendly event which offers a range of activities for kids including an adventure play area with a specialist programme organised.
Also included with a festival ticket is the unique opportunity to stroll the historical village and enjoy a retro pub, old fashioned style sweet shop, Victorian Tramway Museum plus entry to the three acres of picturesque woods which surround the village and festival site. Ticketholders will also have the chance to hop on an original tram which will transport guests to the main festival site after an adventure into the quaint village.
Speaking on the upcoming event, the festival’s directors Gareth Murfin and Anthony Clements have provided further details, “We’ve been planning this for three years now and the result is something really unique that we’re proud of. Where else can you get a vintage tram ride across the Festival site?! Now we just can’t wait for everyone to come and enjoy what we’ve been planning. We fell in love with this charming venue as soon as we saw it, so to be able to programme some of our favourite established artists, alongside some incredible emerging talent that we’ve unearthed locally in the regions, is something very special for us. Expect a beautiful and relaxed setting, where you can take time to explore the Victorian village, before hopping on a tram up to the music stages.”
Along with a traditional stage appearance, Tim Burgess’ brainchild Tim Peaks will perform an in-person version of his Tim’s Twitter Listening Parties. The Charlatans frontman launched the show in lockdown to entertain the public during the peak of the COVID-19 pandemic, the initial Livestream was held in 2020 and featured the group’s 1990 album Some Friendly. The veteran rockers’ performance will also celebrate the 25th anniversary of their fifth studio album Tellin’ Stories and Burgess will perform as a solo artist.
