Nearly 4,000 people descended on Worwell Farm, Tetbury, on Saturday to enjoy a fun packed day of live music and entertainment at Tetfest 2024.
Once again, landowner Geoff Turbott’s green fields were transformed into a vibrant festival site complete with a large and colourful tent, fairground rides, a children’s entertainment zone, face painting, hair braiding, a climbing wall, a fully stocked bar organised by Tetbury Rugby Club, Bar Bros. cocktails, a silent disco featuring DJ Shippers, DJ Danny Toft and DJ Rev. Steve, and a wide selection of stalls selling delicious food.
Music is always at the heart of Tetfest and this year was no exception. Topping the bill was the incredible Chic to Chic, a tribute to Nile Rodgers, while other artists on stage included Katy Ellis as Taylor Swift, Ultimate Elton, Florence & the Bare Souls, Archalia, The Mighty Soul Destroyers, Joli & The Souls, and Junior Jungle, back by popular demand to stun and delight the crowd in equal measure.
“I know we say it every year, but this was definitely the best Tetfest ever,” says organiser Mark Wood.
“It was certainly our biggest crowd to date, and we are so delighted that everyone had a great time. Music brings people together and that’s what Tetfest is all about. I’d like to thank Geoff for making his land available to us – without him there would be no Tetfest. I’d also like to thank our volunteers and everyone else who helped make Tetfest 2024 such a huge success.”
A special word of praise goes to Cirencester College photography students Jessica Starr, Chad Evans and Tom Hughes who worked alongside Tetfest’s official photographer Mike Walker to capture all the fun of the day. Their work can be found on Tetfest’s website tetfest.co.uk.
