It’s amazing to have the band at Delapre and we hope that fans old and new will join us to celebrate the group’s 20th anniversary in these fantastic parkland surroundings.
“Last year, Alive at Delapre helped put Northampton on the map, with thousands of people travelling from near and far for three days of top quality entertainment. And we’re sure that this year’s acts will not disappoint, providing the same level of quality music for all to enjoy. “
