On Monday evening, Chris headed to The Forum in Norwich to join Jack Jay on his radio show on BBC Radio Norfolk. The perfect opportunity for our festival director to get excited about the incredible line-up he's put together for this year's Deepdale Festival. The BBC Radio Norfolk team had also invited Lucy Grubb, Mark from Dove & Boweevil (they performed together) and Alex from Galli, which made for a great show. And Jack played many...
None of us here at Deepdale can quite believe that the Festival is less than a fortnight away. Infact at this time in 2 weeks (8am on Sunday morning) the last day of the Festival will be beginning, the smell of breakfast will be in the air, Hannah Birtwell will be about to perform the first set of the day, and we'll be enjoying the hangover from an amazing Saturday with more than 15 acts including Man the Lifeboats and Kitty Macfarlane, while...

During this year's Deepdale Festival, we have organised two very special concerts in St Mary's Church, Burnham Deepdale, the lovely round towered church just across the road from Deepdale Backpackers & Camping. On Saturday the Marham Bluebirds, officially the Marham Military Wives Choir, will be performing at 4pm. This large choir will fill the church with the most beautiful singing, a perfect antidote to the stresses and strains of...
Saturdays at the Deepdale Festival are always special ... The greatest number of artists gathered in one place; all four of our stages in full swing; weird and wonderful entertainers wandering around the festival village. So, we need a very special band to round off the evening and send our festival goers home happy, smiling and dancing. Enter ‘Man The Lifeboats’, a veritable musical tonic for these troubled times. After a storming first...

Our Friday headliners at this year’s Deepdale Festival are an East Anglian band who are simply unmissable. Morganway, whose debut album is launched this weekend to incredible acclaim, will be lighting up our main Brick Barn Stage on Friday 27th September. You just need to be there! Having seemingly been too rock for folk, too pop for indie, too indie for country, we think they are now just too good to miss. With influences stretching from the...
