On the 1st, 2nd and 3rd of July 2022, Oakham residents and visitors to Rutland Showground will be able to enjoy Rutland's first ever Rutland Music Festival, a 3 day event jam packed with live music, food, beer, and good company.

DJs will keep the crowds entertained in between sets.

With the world's 'premier tribute to Bon Govi', this is an evening not to be missed, and is sure to be the explosive start to a weekend of fun, friendships and some great live music from local and nationally acclaimed bands and artists.

Visitors can bring their own food, but local favourite Farmer Lou will be there, as well as Feast street food, and other snacks and drinks stalls. The team have asked guests not to bring their own alcohol, but fear not, as The Grainstore truck will be keeping the grownups hydrated all night long!

Dogs and kids are welcome too.

See you there!
