Welcome to The Unfair ground…That is, if a welcome is what you are expecting? We are a collection of side shows, dance venues and sculptures. A perverse examination of the hopes and fears found in the worlds of traveling amusements. Something wicked this way comes as the unfair ground rolls into town. Mutant dolls juggled by perverse clowns, a modern satirical take on amusement. Roll Up! Roll Up! For the strangest show on earth!
Born in 2010 from the team that brought you Trash City. Hailed as one of the most exciting and innovative events to hit the UK festival scene in recent years. Trash City was a genre-bending, definition-defying result of a collaboration between the very best of the UK creative underground. Just when you thought Glastonbury couldn’t get any stranger, wilder, or mind-bendingly entertaining, they go and turn it up to 11.
This is Mad Max: Beyond Thunderdome-type entertainment, interspersed with the kind of visual, aural and interactive enjoyment that busy little minds looking for kicks and thrills can only dream of’ Clash Magazine.
Join Glastonbury legends the Mutoid Waste Co. at their party at the end of the world, featuring their latest sculptural lunacy: The Hellcopter. A Royal Navy helicopter crossed with a preying mantis – Also presenting their mechanical menagerie of mythological beats: The Unnatural History museum, PLUS daily Wacky Races mutant vehicle parades!
The brave can take a stroll down Sam Haggerty’s & The dotmasters Joker’s Sideshow Alley, try your luck on the gobbler, Knock down a celebrity Crack Head or test your strength on Old Boney, where the lucky can win a limited edition artwork Happy Doll,
or indulge in the hedonistic delights of The Acid House hosted by Happy Mondays mainman / Celebrity Big Brother alumni Bez (maracas optional). And if you’re still looking for trouble, you can always pick your way through the aircraft graveyard and prop up the bar in the company of an undead aviator at the Apocalypse Hotel, or slip on your blue suede wellies and get down with the robots in Reverend Sharky’s Church Of The Holyroller, playing anything from Voodoo Swamp Blues to Jungle!
Voted one of the best fields its a mix of the strange and familiar, trash and treasure of course if you’re seeking something more gentle you can always find a warm welcome with the lovely people at Strummerville, keeping it down-home with acoustic music and good company in the glow of the campfire.
