Organisers of the popular two-day Hale Barns Carnival are excited to reveal the star-studded line-up to headline the 2019 event.
The third annual Hale Barns Carnival will take place across the weekend of Saturday 20th July and Sunday 21st July 2019, with its biggest line up yet!
The event will be packed with fun for all the family including amazing attractions, traditional fun fair, and artisan foodie village – plus an all-star live concert each evening to perfectly round off two fantastic days.
Daytime entry to the Hale Barns Carnival is free from 12pm until 5pm on both days. The evening concerts are ticketed, gates open at 6pm with the concerts starting at 7.30pm. 100% of the ticket revenue will go towards community projects.
Tickets for the concerts on Saturday and Sunday evenings are on sale now.
Organisers Hale Barns Events recently revealed that Spandau Ballet’s Martin Kemp will perform on the B&M Stage but have kept the other all-star names under wraps – until now!
They are delighted to announce that Martin Kemp will be joined by three further headline acts – The Real Thing, Nathan Moore from Brother Beyond and disco legends Odyssey return to Hale Barns, Back by popular demand!
Martin Kemp will headline the Sunday evening concert with a Back To The 80s DJ set – as well as some Spandau Ballet classics to entertain the crowd.
Martin shot to fame as part of ‘New Romantics’ group Spandau Ballet, selling millions of records worldwide with hits including Only When You Leave, Through the Barricades, True, and of course Gold. A successful TV and film career also followed with roles in EastEnders and The Krays, as well as TV appearances on Celebrity Island, and judging on BBC talent show Let It Shine.
Martin will be joined on the Sunday evening by fellow 80s heartthrob, Nathan Moore from Brother Beyond. Nathan was the front man of boy band Brother Beyond, who were formed in 1987 and had a string of Top 40 hits including The Harder I Try, which was produced by Stock, Aitken & Waterman.
The disco and soul spotlight is on Saturday evening’s concert with live performances from legendary bands, The Real Thing and Odyssey.
Liverpool band and soul legends The Real Thing features original band members Chris Amoo and Dave Smith. The group will perform their top selling hits including You To Me Are Everything, Can’t Get By Without You and Feel The Force.
Disco superstars Odyssey return to Hale Barns direct from the USA due to popular demand to play to their “favourite audience”. Odyssey played at the very first Hale Barns Carnival in 2017 – and they’re set to wow audiences for a second time with hits including Use It Up & Wear It Out, Native New Yorker, Inside Out and the iconic disco anthem Going Back To My Roots.
Odyssey lead singer Steven Collazo added: “We are so excited to be coming back to Hale Barns in 2019, you guys were crazy last time and we had so much fun. We can’t wait to party with you all again in beautiful Hale Barns along with our friends The Real Thing.”
