CULTURE CLUB

The Cambridge Club: back with a bang!

After dazzling with Diana Ross and Chic last summer, The Cambridge Club Festival returns from 9 to 11 June with another blistering line-up of eclectic entertainment. Topping the bill for Friday is boundary-pushing diva Grace Jones, while Sunday will see soul stars Kool & The Gang take to the stage. On Saturday, meanwhile, the festival will host the legendary Lionel Richie, singer of global hits including Dancing on the Ceiling , Hello and Three Times A Lady . Also making appearances at the Childerley Hall site are The Real Thing, Sophie Ellis-Bextor, Billy Ocean and Alexander O’Neal, plus a host of top DJs including Craig Charles, Jo Whiley, Fat Tony and Eats Everything. Away from the big stages, there will be plenty of fun to seek out for all ages. In the Imagination Station, nestled in the orchard, catch kids’ theatre, arts, crafts and games, or discover comedy, talks and live podcasts at the Auditorium of Intrigue. When you get hungry, you’ll be spoilt for choice in the brand-new food court, serving up street food delicacies, vibrant vegan dishes and much more. If you want to make a weekend of it, the festival will once again offer camping tickets (from £229.75 each), which come with a host of perks – including dedicated wellness activities and after-hours musical performances. For the VIP treatment, go for the Clubhouse experience, where you’ll be treated to complimentary food and drink, a luxurious seating area and posh toilets! Clubhouse tickets start at £222 per day.
