subject: Field Day Festival 2010 Tickets [print this page] Field Day Festival is an outdoor music festival which takes place in Victoria Park in the London Borough of Hackney, organised by events promoter Tom Baker of Eat Your Own Ears. Similar to sister festival Underage, the single day event takes place around early August of each year. Both festivals usually share similar line-ups, as well as taking place within days of each other. There are five main stages, currently titled the Eat Your Own Ears Main Stage, Adventures in the Beetroot Field Stage, Village Mentality Stage, the Bugged Out! Stage and the Bloggers Delight Stage. Contrary to Underage, the festival is only open to over 18s, and contains on-site bars. Initially commissioned and announced by Ingenious Media in July 2007, the first festival took place on 11 August of the same year. It has continuously expanded and improved every year since, with a fourth event scheduled for July 2010. Since its inception, ticket allocation for the festival has sold out every year the festival has taken place.
The festival hosts an annual village fete, titled Village Mentality. Beginning in 2008, the area includes a sack race, tug of war and egg and spoon race. In 2008, the events took place until 5pm, finishing earlier than the rest of the festival. In 2009, the area was extended to include its own musical line-up, playing on the Village Mentality Stage. Acts included Mumford & Sons, Toumani Diabat and Malcolm Middleton. The area is handled by organiser Tom Baker's girlfriend Natalie. Village Mentality was formerly known as Homefires, who hosted their own London festival until 2007.
Field Day 2010 will take place on 31 July 2010. Field Day Tickets for Victoria Park London, UK are available at Sold Out Ticket Market against nominal price. Sold Out Ticket Market is ideal for Field Day Festival Tickets at affordable rates. Check out for Field Day Festival Tickets.
