STAGES

There are 4 stages at 2000 Trees:

The Main Stage: everything goes here but expect guitar strummers to be an regular fixture.

The Cave: Described by the 2000 Trees organisers as the stage with those acts on the "heavier and weirder end of the musical spectrum".

The Leaf Lounge: The acts here are pretty diverse, although there�ll be none of the noise you�ll find on in The Cave.

The GreenHouse: Acoustic sets until 21:00 then it's Silent Disco bedlam.

SILENT DISCO

As with most fedtival nowadays the local Council love to meddle, luckily you won't be shipped off to bed at 11PM because there is silent disco's to keep your feet moving. 2000 Trees festival pumps out several silent radio channels for you to get down with, Main Stage: something for all tastes from Pulp to Hanson to Rage Against The Machine, The Cave: a much more alternative selection from the worlds of metal, indie, punk and rock and The GreenHouse: a selection of dance DJs and some seriously chilled out tunes.

KIDS PLAY

There is plenty of stuff to keep the little one's entertained throughout the day including musical instrument / mask making, face painting and juggling and if they just want to run their socks off there is plenty of open space for that.
