The Cabaret tent is set in Bella’s Field alongside Sensation Seekers, A Little More Sensation, Poetry&Words and the late-night Mavericks, is filled with some of the biggest names of comedy and cabaret – and more than a few surprises.
It’s an eclectic representation of all that is cabaret.
The tent opens at noon on Friday, Saturday and Sunday – running until the early hours of the morning. Start your day with a panel show and end it with a cult hero unleashed – here are our picks of the weekend.
