WITH the final transformation from field to festival complete, it’s go-go-go at Larmer Tree Gardens.

Held in beautiful gardens on the Wiltshire/Dorset border on the way to Salisbury, the festival is now under way.

This intimate festival has been drawing crowds to the party for more than 20 years with an eclectic mix of music, comedy, street theatre, adult workshops and a wide range of activities for kids.

Larmer lovers are being advised to pack their sun cream for a scorcher of a weekend – on and off stage.

Tonight’s headliner is none other than Seasick Steve.

Now in his 70s, Steve has been singing the blues and playing guitar since the age of eight.

Larmer Tree really hots up tomorrow as organisers welcome back Imelda May, who was a big hit at the festival two years ago.

Her musical merge of rockabilly, blues and jazz has won her a legion of fans and awards.

Also on the music bill tomorrow are 11-piece Bollywood style band The Bombay Royale and dub, ska and roots reggae from the Gentleman’s Dub Club.

The nation’s favourite impressionist Alistair McGowan, pictured, is going back to his stand-up roots for the Saturday comedy headline spot.

Finishing off the festival in style on Sunday are, winner of the Best Album at the BBC Radio 2 Folk Awards 2013 Bellowhead and Brit and Ivor Novello award-winning sassy Scottish singer-songwriter KT Tunstall.

The comedy tent closes with an appearance from Rich Hall, the grouchy, deadpan comic genius who quit his job as a hurricane namer for the United States Meteorological Service two decades ago and hasn’t looked back.

Limited tickets remain.
