Here we are now, entertain us: Festival returns to Rugby with tributes to Nirvana, Queen and Red Hot Chili Peppers
Music-fans are in for a treat with the return of the Rugby Fake Festival this summer.
Prepare to be rocked by tributes to Queen, Red Hot Chili Peppers, Nirvana, Stereophonics, Depeche Mode and REM at Whitehall Recreation Ground on Saturday, July 25.
The event takes place in a marquee with an outside garden area with food traders, tables and chairs, bar, toilets and activities for younger guests including total wipeout, hang tough and rodeo.
Alistair Jamieson, lead singer of Really Hot Chili Peppers said: “We have been on the Fake Festivals tour since 2010 and it's just a fantastic day out for friends and families.
“We have been all over the UK with the tour and just love to perform inside the Fake Festivals marquee.
“The sound is fantastic and the crew are great. It's a chance for families to enjoy live music in a safe space and get that live music experience. We are on with some other amazing tribute bands - we can't wait for it.”
Fake Festivals founder Jez Lee said: “We are really looking forward to coming back to Rugby on July 25.
"Last year was a great day and we saw lots of families having a great time socialising and enjoying live music in the heart of their town.”
