Boomerang Hickstead With Jessie J and The Vamps

It’s not often that famous faces such as Jessie J enter the RH16/17 area but this month, things are about to change.

The brand-new Boomerang Festival comes to town on Saturday 12th and Sunday 13th September at Hickstead Showground for a
two-day music event.

Lizzie Bunn, Hickstead director said, when launching the event: “We are very excited to announce the launch of Boomerang Hickstead, our first major live music event. It’s set to be a superb weekend of music and the huge International arena will provide a wonderful, open-air concert venue”

Headlining on the Saturday night is Simple Minds, who will be performing songs from their latest album ‘Big Music’.
Supporting Simple Minds are The Proclaimers and country music-influenced duo, The Shires, as well as up and coming phenomenon Andreya Triana.

On Sunday, Jessie J (eek!) arrives to perform chart favourites including ‘Domino’, ‘Price Tag’ and latest number one smash ‘Bang Bang’. Joining Jessie
J as headliner is The Vamps. Further support comes from ‘Keep On Movin’ and ‘Back To Life’ award winners Soul II Soul and rising singer songwriter star, Rae Morris.

As well as watching the acts perform, there will be pop-up restaurants, street food and alternative entertainment away from the main stage.

Tickets are priced £39.50 for one day, or £75 for the whole weekend. For more information and to book tickets, visit boomeranghickstead.com. Hickstead Showground, West Sussex, RH17 5NU.
