2011 tickets onsale at this years price NOW

18th July 2010.

Yo People!

Greetings from the Barn HQ at 2000trees!  Yep, we're still here tidying up after what was quite frankly an awesome weekend.

Firstly a huge huge huge thanks to each and every one of you for making 2000trees so amazing, we hope you enjoyed it as much as we did putting it together!

The Fest obviously wouldn't happen without you guys and watching everyone having a blast in a field is the main reason we started Trees in the first place.... it's how we get our kicks!  So big up your bad selves!!

As usual we'd love to hear your stories/ highlights and suggestions for next year, so please visit our facebook page or forum and let us know what you thought.

If you've got any photo's to share with us then please stick 'em up on Facebook.

There are just 2 other things to tell you...

2011 TICKETS ON SALE NOW!

Tickets for next year are on sale NOW at this years price of £50. This will be for a strictly limited period of time so click here now to get yours!!!

This will be our 5th Birthday Party, so expect a big one!!!

Just to remind you we sold out in record time this year, (in May), and judging by the posts on our facebook group before the weekend there were a LOT of disappointed peeps without tickets, so don't miss out on 2011!

MERCHANDISE.

2000trees T-Shirts, Hoodies & CD's are all on sale now from our website.

We've still got a lot of clearing up to do at Upcote Farm, so I best get back to the field and make sure the other organisers are still working!

If you're off to Y-Not in a couple of weeks, we'll see you there for a Sambuca or 2!

Peas Out.

Cheers

Important trees info!

Wallop!

 

Things are reaching fever pitch here at 2000trees towers, so we thought we'd give you a brief heads up on some important trees info so you know what to expect!

SOLD OUT.

 

Yep that's right, in case you've been hiding under a rock for the last few months, 2000trees SOLD OUT again a couple of months ago!  This means no ticket = no entry!!

 

There's been rumours that some folks are planning on turning up on the day in the vain hope of buying a ticket or, shock horror sneaking in!

 

Firstly, there are no more tickets available!  As we are at our legal capacity already any extra, uninvited people will be jeopardising our license and therefore the long-term survival of the festival.

 

Therefore if you don't have a ticket (or know someone else that doesn't) please please DO NOT show up, as you will be turned away.  Any people who try to sneak onto the site will be ejected immediately and handed over to the local Police to be escorted back to their rightful owners!!

 

Instead please get your tickets early next year to avoid disappointment!


For those of you that do have tickets, well we can't wait to meet y'all!!!  Here are just a few bits of info for your perusal...

 

Tickets.

Please print off your eticket, which was emailed after purchase, and bring it with you.  Please have these ready as soon as you arrive, as you will not be able to get onto the site without it.

 

Address.

If you've not been before, or have forgotten how to get there, here is where we are! (Upcote Farm, Withington, Gloucestershire, GL54 4BL).

 

Changes to your tickets?

The last day to change the names on your tickets is FRIDAY the 9th of JULY.

 

Site entry times.

VIP early entry - Thursday 15th July 15:00 (with a Thurs + Weekend ticket).

General entry   - Friday 16th July 09:30.

 

Cash machines.

Yes we do have cash machines onsite.

 

No glass.

That's right, please do not bring any glass onsite - our security will confiscate it and any tasty contents.

 

Car park charge.

As a final reminder we will be implementing a car parking charge of £5 per car this year, to help subsidise a greener shuttle bus service (for those that don't have a car or wish to be green and leave it home).  To encourage car sharing, the charge does not apply if you have four or more people in your car - so go on make some new friends, share that motor, and park for FREE.

 

The charge will be collected in cash on arrival, so please have your fivers or change ready so that we can get you into the site as quickly as possible.

 

If you want to avoid the charge and help reduce the carbon footprint of your festival, our friends at Big Green Coaches are operating a shuttle bus service from Cheltenham train station to the site.  The costs of this service is £6 single / £10 return, which is cheaper than sharing a taxi.  Departure times are as follows:

 

From Cheltenham Railway Station to 2000trees.

Thursday:  16:15, 18:15 & 20:15

Friday:       10:15 and then every hour until 19:15

Saturday:   10:15 and then every 2 hours until 16:15

 

From 2000trees to Cheltenham Railway Station.

Saturday:  11:00 and then every 2 hours until 17:00

Sunday:    07:00 and then every 30 minutes until 12:00 midday

 

Festival Coaches are also offering a coach service from London and Oxford for a return price of £35 & £28 respectively.

 

Well, think that's about all for now, if you have any further questions please hit us up on facebook and we'll endeavour to message you back.

 

We seriously can't wait to see you all down the farm, we've been working really hard over the last few weeks, it's looking ace and we reckon it's easily gonna be the best trees yet!

See you in a couple of weeks!

 

Boo ya touch down, mine's a pint of Badgers!

2000trees SOLD OUT by 2nd week in May!!!

 

Photobucket

G'day Sun lovers!

Hope you're up for a sizzlingly hot weekend, I've got 3 words for you; B. B. Q!

Just a couple of things to tell you this Friday including Saturdays Fancy Dress theme and the awesome news that we are bringing IMPERIAL LEISURE to Cheltenham for a very special evenings entertainment!!...

2000 trees SELLS OUT

As you may have already heard on the grapevine 2000 trees has now officially SOLD OUT, and in record time too by the 2nd week in May no less! 

There are no more tickets, Nope, Nada, Zero, Zilch... Not even our own mothers could get a ticket now!  So very well done if you managed to snag one!

If you want to be a record breaker...

Talking of breaking records... the reason we haven't yet released the fancy dress theme for this year is because Andy has been trying to get us into the Guinness book of records!  The crazy idea, (as Andy’s ideas usually are) is to smash the record for the most amount of people in a field all dressed as ANIMALS and thereby get us into that famous book.  Not sure what the current record is, but I'm sure it can't be that high!  

Guinness are still doing the paperwork which is why we hadn't told you yet, but we got inpatient so we thought we'd spill the beans!

So who knows if you all turn up dressed as animals then we could all be record breakers!  This year it will be on the Saturday night so the Headphone Disco will be even more surreal, seeing a field full of animals dancing around in silence!

There will be prizes for the best dressed, but the first person to come to the bar dressed as a Manatee will get a special prize from me!

Interview with 2 of the organisers.

If you want to hear a little bit more about what makes us here at 2000trees tick then have a listen to 2 of the team interviewed recently in Cheltenham.  I can't say I agree with everything they say (mainly the Bon Jovi bit), but it certainly gives you some insight into the type of people I have to work with on a daily basis!

Have a listen here

IMPERIAL LEISURE!

Right, we know how much you guys love Imperial Leisure but unfortunately we can't book them every year.  So we've decided to put on a very special double gig in Cheltenham on June 11th with the good folks from KissMyFace Music.

The first 40 people to book tickets for the main gig at the Boogie Lounge will get a FREE ticket to see the bands' first ever acoustic set, which takes place, weirdly, in the town library earlier that same day.  So what are you waiting for?  You can buy tickets here.

 

OK that's about it for now, except to say a very Happy Birthday to Catherine AKA Clubbers, who turns 30 today... she doesn't look a day over 29!  Feel free to give her a birthday shout out on our Facebook page, it will make her day!

Enjoy the mini heat wave this weekend and we'll see you in July if not before!
