The Fulltone Orchestra has confirmed today that their annual festival will take place on The Green in Devizes from 25th – 27th July 2025….
“It’s hard to believe that exactly one month ago, we were on The Green setting up for what we thought might be the last Fulltone Festival,” they said today.
“Fulltone is run by a small group of volunteers and is funded solely by ticket sales plus a few generous local sponsors. Ticket sales hadn’t been great leading up to this year’s festival, and we really thought that it might have run its course.”
A last minute rush on ticket sales for the festival this July, the smooth running of the event, and overwhelmingly positive feedback have been the benefactors which caused the organisers to make a u-turn on not holding a Fulltone Festival next year.
I reasoned based on rumours about camping possibilities it may be relocated outside the central town, but organiser Jemma Brown confirmed it will remain on the Green due to popular demand, and the Rowdy Cow site could become a camping area with a shuttle bus operating to and fro.
Jemma also explained they’ve dropped the word “festival” from the title of the event, and from next summer it will be known more simply as Fulltone ‘25. I like this, it’s a unique event and on the reputation it has amassed over the years it needs no more explanation than this.
Acts are already being considered and booked, and Jemma also mentioned the possibility of fringe events happening in town venues. All exciting developments, and we wish them all the best with these early planning stages for what has become a jewel in the Devizes event calendar.
Fulltone ’25 will take place on The Green from 25th – 27th July 2025. Early bird tickets will go on sale at 9 am Saturday 24th August 2024.
