Also sold out are the 115 tipis available in the boutique camping area. .
Camping passes to other areas remain available for the time being – camping is included in the ticket price – but tickets are going fast for this year’s event. Whilst tipis are sold out, sensational beach huts (sleep two) and a ‘ship’ with eight berths remain available in the luxury accommodation sector at the festival.
Bella has also announced that if tickets do not sell out in advance, gate prices will carry a £10 premium making tickets cost £90 per adult weekend and £60 per adult Saturday.
“We have faced unprecedented demand in these areas this year,” said festival co-promoter Joe Gibbs. “More and more people seem to want to camp in vehicles and next year we will almost certainly have to bring in a charge for this due to the amount extra space required by this type of camper. Our boutique camping has gone from strength to strength each year and despite increasing capacity still further in 2009, we have sold out the tipis.”
Award-winning Belladrum has announced music headliners Editors and Ocean Colour Scene plus a raft of other acts including: Twin Atlantic; Aberfeldy; The Saw Doctors; Shed Seven; British Sea Power; Seth Lakeman; Alabama 3; Sons & Daughters; Glen Tilbrook & The Fluffers; The Peatbog Faeries; Lau; Toploader; Treacherous Orchestra; Transglobal Underground; Tommy Reilly; De Votchka; The Phantom Band; 3 Daft Monkeys; Edward II; The Wallbirds; Kid Carpet; Sam Isaac; Broken Records; Magistrates; Healthy Minds Collapse; Sparrow & The Workshop; The Lost Brothers; and Scooty & The Skyhooks.
Belladrum 2009 takes place in the beautiful Highland surroundings of Belladrum Estate, near Beauly in Inverness-shire. The independent festival has built a reputation for its eclectic line-ups, its off-beat non-musical entertainments and its all-ages approach. Capacity will remain what it was in 2008 at 12,000. At the UK Festival Awards Ceremony in October – the festival industry’s ‘oscars’ - Bella was awarded the Grassroots Festival Award.
This year the festival is supported by Homecoming Scotland 2009, EventScotland and Highland Council. Marie Christie, Homecoming Scotland Project Director said, “Belladrum is one of Scotland’s leading family-friendly festivals. Taking place in beautiful surroundings, the fantastic programme and quality experience make it an unmissable festival diary date. We are excited to be working with the organisers to make sure 2009 hosts the best Bella yet ”.
Advance adult weekend tickets have been held at 2008 prices and are £80 and adult Saturday tickets will cost £50. Both include parking and camping. As in previous years, tickets for children 12 & under are free.
