The organisers of Butserfest (East Hampshire District Council) have once again teamed up with Live & Unsigned to offer places at the festival to local unsigned acts at Butserfest 2012 on Saturday 15 September.
Three bands chosen from the local Live & Unsigned heats will open the festival’s main stage and – for the first time – the national winner in the rock category will feature on the main stage.
Butserfest, an alcohol/drug-free festival that takes place at Queen Elizabeth Country Park in Hampshire, is now in its sixth year and aims to feature the best local and national up-and-coming bands. Previous acts have included You Me At Six, The Blackout, The King Blues, Funeral For A Friend, Bury Tomorrow and Young Guns.
Butserfest band organiser, Lucy Soal, said: “It’s great to be working with Live and Unsigned once again. We pride ourselves in giving opportunities to unsigned acts and the national winner in the rock category will be a welcome addition to our lineup.”
The festival features two stages of music, as well as free activities. Previous years have included bungee runs, laser tag and inflatable table football.
