Status Quo confirmed to headline GuilFest

Status Quo, who have sold over 118 million records worldwide, recorded 64 British Hit Singles and had more hit albums (32) in the UK album charts than any other band apart from the Rolling Stones, have been confirmed to headline GuilFest on Sunday July 18th.

Status Quo have notched up 22 top ten UK singles since their first, 'Pictures Of Matchstick Men', reached number 7 in the UK chart in January 1968, spending over seven and a half years in the British singles chart in all.

Status Quo, who hold the record for the most appearances on Top Of The Pops (106!) promise to play a plethora of unforgettable rock'n'roll anthems such as 'Paper Plane', 'Caroline', 'Down Down', 'Rockin' All Over The World', 'Whatever You Want', 'The Wanderer' and 'In The Army Now'.

GuilFest has been consistently voted as one of the UK's best family festivals. Held in the idyllic location of Stoke Park, Guildford, visitors can expect a truly fantastic weekend, featuring 7 stages of live music hosting a mind blowing 200 great acts – including the now famous Rock Cave, featuring some of the best rock acts in the UK; and the Dance Tent - which in previous years has featured huge DJ sets from artists such as Rusko and Pendulum.

It's not just about the music at GuilFest though; around the site you can find the hilarious Cosmic Comedy Zone, the Theatre tent, the incredibly popular Farmer Giles Barn Dance, street theatre, arts and crafts, delicious food and drink from all over the globe, bars and cocktail bars, one of the best festival children's areas on the circuit, The KidZone, and much more besides. Also - back by popular demand and much larger for 2010 will be the jumping 70's disco tent.

With Christmas just around the corner, this year the festival is offering a Christmas early bird ticket offer. 1000 weekend and camping tickets are now available at a reduced price with adult tickets reduced by £10 and Kids tickets reduced by £5.

On top of the early bird ticket, GuilFest is also offering a group discount! For every 8 weekend or weekend and camping tickets purchased, festival goers will receive an extra one for free!

These offers are only available until Christmas Eve.
