The new attraction in the Jokers sideshow alley. Probably one of the largest high strikers in the country! 5 1/2 m to the bell it takes a strong man or woman to ring the bell and win a prize. Built by the Dotmasters who supply a range of hand crafted prizes, either one off stencil works sprayed on aluminum, or the twisted voodoo doll are you man enough to try your luck and ring the bell?

Try your luck its a straight hard hammer drive through the target to hit the bell, swing the 6kg rubber hammer to win a prize! On it’s first outing over 5o strong men rang the bell all receiving art works, voodoo dolls, mugs and rubiks cubes all the work of the Dotmasters. “700 of you tried! And only 50 of you succeeded. Are you one of those really really strong men…Roll Up, Roll Up Test your strength on the Old Boney high striker!”

Year after year Bez and his boys mash it up with the smoke and the strobes taking us back to the days when the eyes rolled, the white gloves stacked shelves and the acid flowed like water. This year see’s an all star line up dropping the chunes from 12-6am

Wow, what a great year 2011 was, with the Unfairground smashing it, with The Unfairground which was named as best field by even the most right wing of papers such as the The Telegraph and the Times. We probably scared the Guardian journalist off or it was way past his bedtime. Rocking from 12 to 6am the field looked at its most twisted at 7am, a weird munter soup, wide eyed and sweaty space cadets still rocking the the music that had stopped about an hour before.
Andre took some great pics looks like he was on the ball and caught all of the highlights. Check his version of events here>>>>

Reverent Sharky’s Church of the Holy Roller.
The dance floor heaved as beat after beat made you move your feet in this wrecking ball inspired pinball stage. The line up eclectic with secret sets from Fat boy Silm and Carl Cox, Slim hasn’t played a secret gig in the mutoids field since 2009 and it was nice to have him back, whether it was the first or the last on the stage rocked as the dj’s tore the dance floor up .

Bez’s Acid House tent.
An old school all star line up battled it out with heavy fog machines and 2k strobes  to twist your mind till the early hours. 808 state headlined as Bez roused the crowd and managed not to fall of the stage as many times as he did last year. whether you were stacking boxes doing the robot or just generally freaking out, this tent, again delivered the tunes of yesteryear at break neck pace.

The jokers sideshows, continued to taunt us with their promise of prizes, actually things went array with the demented jokers giving out more prizes than ever before. Did the rig’s break down or were they drunk? Funny as hell watching folk wander around at 4 in the morning hammered clutching evil dolls prizes.

The Mutate Britain tent hosts The Mighty Booth conceived to create a series of dramatically individual photo booths and they showcase their first at Mutate in 2010! Every fairground should have one, and the unfair ground does! Somewhere to capture a moment. In all your trashed glory! Check news of future gigs here at the Mighty Booth site

What makes the booths so special is the attention to detail. From the outside they resemble the classic Retro photo booth but once the curtain is drawn the eccentric nature of the booth becomes outlandishly clear by purposely contradicting the exterior with period features that include oak panelled walls, a brass porthole, chesterfield seating and the odd antler.

We have recreated the nostalgia and fun of retro booths and whizzed it all up using modern digital technology to give you immediately a strip of four individually shot colour, black & white or sepia prints. Check out this beauty below taken at Glastonbury on the booths first outing.

Did you see us at a festival and cant believe what happened to you?

Do you want your money back?

Or perhaps one of our dolls came alive in the night and terrorized your little one?  Did you follow an address on a sticker?  The unfairground.org, its a little like a fun fair, where the fun is to enjoy the shifting sands of unfairness! The unfairground is coming to a corner of a festival near you this summer, so try your luck…(you’ll need it!)  Roll up! Roll up! For the unfairest show on earth!!!
