Wizard Festival 2010, Plans for next year’s event already being made
THE dust has barely settled on this year’s Wizard Festival, but already planning has started to make next year’s music event even bigger and better.
The two-day Wizard Festival attracted a record-breaking more than 5,000 music fans to the New Deer Showground in Aberdeenshire, to rock to top flight bands, such as The Charlatans and The Levellers.
Now Wizard Festival organiser Roy Thain is planning to make sure those grins are even bigger in New Deer next year.
He said: “We have to start planning the next Wizard Festival almost as soon as the current one is finished.
“We’ve just seen the biggest and best Wizard Festival yet, so it will take a lot of hard work to make next year’s even bigger and better.”
And Wizard Festival organiser Roy is confident that the music event, sponsored this year by the Evening Express, will continue to grow.
“As we become a more established name on the festival circuit we have more established acts looking to play at the Wizard Festival.”
Having just topped the 5,000 mark for attendance, Roy is sure that the number of visitors to the Wizard Festival in New Deer will swell in years to come.
So could the Wizard Festival ever rival T in the Park?
“I wouldn’t think so,” said Roy. “For one thing we’d have to move from the New Deer site.”
“We don’t want to lose the family atmosphere at the Wizard Festival, that is just vital to the whole event.”
