Bannaroo 2022

OUR ETHOS

The world is a funny old place at the moment. We're spending more and more time on our own. They say things differently. It isn't the right colour. It's not from this country. He hasn't had a vaccine. She doesn't believe the same thing I do and in all the hum-chum conundrum of our day to day lives, you'd be hard-pressed to say things were easy, but don't worry. That's where we come in. For one weekend, and one weekend only, we invite you to come with us to a very special place. A place where you can be whoever you are, a place where you can bring your sister, your mother-in-law, your eagle (sadly not but we like the idea) and celebrate all the good things about being human without it costing you a bomb.

YOUR INVITATION

So - join us, join us, join us you fun-loving feet stompers, for our third annual festival of beautiful music, mouth-watering, reasonably-priced food and drink and of course, a good ol' boogie.

ANNOUNCING

We're delighted to announce the third instalment of your very special family festival packed with beautiful food, a great range of music, plenty of things to keep your children busy and reasonably priced, well kept real ales & gins.

SATURDAY LINEUP

ULTIMATE COLDPLAY

The UK number one tribute to Coldplay.

We are absolutely ecstatic to present for Bannaroo 2022, The world's number one tribute to Coldplay, Ultimate Coldplay.

We're delighted to announce our first headliner for Saturday Ultimate Coldplay - voted 3 years in a row the best tribute in the UK and endorsed by Coldplay themselves!

We don't usually feature reviews but it seems the only way to do these guys justice is to share some of their recent feedback. 

"We seen Ultimate Coldplay at Northampton Picturedrome - I have never seen a tribute so accurate. The vocals and dance moves were different level and the way they got the crowd captivated was amazing! Thank you so much for the best occasion. We had the most lovely time! Thank you for letting me be your drunken Beyoncé. Lots of love… Jodie, Lee, Erica, Jon and Shakey Stevens x"

"I saw the band play at the Town Hall in Sutton Coldfield a few days ago. I was there to write a review of the venue and the gig. The venue was lovely, and I have to say I was blown away by the band and the quality of the performance. I will be writing a professional review along with some of the videos I took, but I definitely recommend them and felt like I had been to a Coldplay gig. Really impressed and would definitely go to see them again. There was a great turnout and the atmosphere was fabulous. Well done guys!"

Recently remarked by a review board as “Not really a tribute, that cheapens what this band do, but instead transports you all the way back to the era - so sensitively and authentically done that it felt like it was actually ELO being mirrored up there on the stage”.
