2000trees Festival reveal first headliner for 2021

2000trees Festival have revealed the first headliner for next year’s festival!

After announcing last week that 2020’s festival would not be going ahead due to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, the organisers behind the grassroots festival have confirmed that JIMMY EAT WORLD are the first headliner for 2021’s event, retaining their place at top billing.

“We’re mega excited to announce that JIMMY EAT WORLD will be at 2000trees 2021 as our Main Stage Thursday headliner,” says festival organiser James Scarlett. “They were the first band we announced for 2020 so it felt like the right thing to let people know now. I also really can’t wait to shout about the rest of the 2021 line up – a little bit of inside info is that it will feature loads of the 2020 bands with some very special cherries on top. Watch this space!”

Alongside confirming JIMMY EAT WORLD as a headliner, the festival has also launched a crowd funder where fans can obtain some great products, cash back and indeed sponsor a stage if they wish.

“Today we’ve launched a 2000trees crowd funder with some amazing rewards for our fans and supporters. As people are already aware, due to the COVID-19 pandemic 2000trees has been postponed until 2021,” Scarlett says. “This means that, as an independent business with no corporate backers this crowd funder will secure the long term survival of 2000trees and help to support thousands of others that depend on 2000trees each year. If people are able to help out then they will be a hero not just to the six of us who work all year round on the festival, but our whole team and everyone else that loves 2000trees.”

2000trees Festival will return at at Upcote Farm, near Cheltenham, Gloucestershire on July 8th-10th 2021.
