THE SUNRISE CELEBRATION IS BACK
‘A New Dawn for UK Festival Culture’
The Sunrise Summer Celebration returns to the fields of south Somerset from May 31st to June 3rd 2007. With the phenomenal success and critical acclaim of the 2006 event that took place over the summer solstice, the organisers are promising an even 'greener' and more entertaining festival. The capacity has now increased to 10000 and promises more top live acts and performers. The unique layout of the festival continues with the mandala of 13 unique areas of entertainment, creativity, music, permaculture, circus, performance arts and talks and workshops.
"We like to think we are hosting a space for the most cutting-edge and green ways of life for the general populus. Our focus is on setting the standard in festival production that is ethical, sustainable and can be carried in to daily life. From the compost toilets and solar powered areas, to the alternative education and live acts, we want to bridge the gap between the green movement and those that enjoy an exciting festival atmosphere" says Dan Hurring, one of the organisers.
2006 saw top-draw acts such as Eat Static, Arthur Brown, Seize the Day, Dreadzone, Martha Tilston and System 7 grace the main stage, whilst international authors such as Graham Hancock and Jonathan Cainer held multimedia presentations on astrology and ancient cultures. Look out for the exclusive Dreadzone CD launched this month, ‘Live at Sunrise’, that was recorded at the 2006 event. It is available from the Sunrise Celebration website.
The event also broke new ground in environmental and ethical standards with a site-wide organic and ethical policy and over 60 compost toilets. The site is entirely powered by bio-diesel and other renewable resources, allowing the more hi-tech end of events production to blend with the grassroots green festival experience. The 2007 event will feature an 'Organic Alliance' of ethical organisations, events organizers, multicultural and arts groups and green business, showcasing state-of-the-art aspects of sustainable lifestyles and culture.
Limited 'early-bird' tickets are available for £55 from www.sunrisecelebration.com or by calling 0845 1080259. For general info call 0845 0096347 or email info@sunrisecelebration.com
