"The only gay male belly dancer in the world"

They're describing it as "a festival with knobs and knockers on", which is more than just an attempt to make the announcement of - yes - yet another festival seem interesting. This is, as far as we can tell ("as far as we can be bothered to check") the first queer-festival. Although, obviously, there are lots of other gay festivals of various types, this one is a music festival in a field type festival, and gay as you please.

And when better than the ten anniversary of Ellen DeGeneres coming out to announce it?

The whole thing is aiming to be a bit more gorgeous than your average festival, with proper nice food and delicious camping. And if there's mud - as mud there must always be - we're sure it'll be scented, or at least reviving. It's going to cost £98, although that comes down to thirty if you're prepared to kip in a Dormobile or something, and it's going to take place an hour and a half's drive from central London (which in our experience would place it somewhere just outside central London.) More details and stuff on the internet.
