Red Funnel ticket sales... Extreme performers booked
Dear
All
Hope you are all well and have the time to read this Newsletter.
Red Funnel are proving to be a really good sponsor and are providing lots of practical help and additional promotion for the festival.
They have now agreed to sell tickets from their main website and and have developed a really helpful DHRF micro site.... link below.

They have advised us that the discounted ferry tickets will sell really quickly when people realise the savings on offer.
The ability to buy a really cheap ferry ticket and festival ticket will attract many who will see that this also provides free camping on the Island for five days during the peak tourist season.
So the message is ... book early to avoid disappointment... this is not a ploy to get you to buy tickets early ... just a helpful warning ... tickets have started to sell!
All the performers have continued to commit themselves to the festival so we are really pleased that we can offer a quality line-up.
Negotiations with PA and staging companies are almost finalised and we are confident that we will be presenting the music in the best way possible.
We have booked an Island based extreme performers troupe which includes a fire show and hatchet throwing!!!!!!
There is a lot of interest here on the Island for the DHRF and we hope that day tickets will sell really well.
Hope to see you all in August.
