A MUSIC festival which raises money to help sick children is returning to a Hampshire village.
Lowde Fest 2015, in Hazeley Bottom near Hook, will see 1980s star Paul Young headline, alongside up-and-coming artists Rick Parfitt Junior and Leddra Chapman.
Winchester’s Louise Smith also features in the line up.
The festival on July 4 will see 12 hours of music with 24 acts, more than 80 types of ales and ciders, a fairground, food stalls, cocktail bars, a toddler zone for little ones and on-site camping.
The event is a fundraiser for the Lowde Music Trust and all profits will go to supporting sick children in hospitals across the country.
Martin Lowde, festival director, said: “We are so excited about this year’s line up. We had over 1,000 bands and acts apply to play this year so the competition for a place on the bill was high and only the best have got through.
“It’s going to be the best party ever in a field in sunny Hazeley Bottom.”
