Get there early and watch

Exit Calm. Possibly the best unsigned band in Britain.

I cannot wait for this

Based on the line up this is the best U.K festival this year.

More names to come :)

We're really excited by this years event, it's going to be bigger and better than anything we've put together in the ten years of TMF Festival.

Just to let you know that as well as ticket prices being low, we won't be ripping people off with huge bar/food prices/programme prices. Anyone who knows our old festival will know we're not in this to make ourselves rich!
