What is it?

Summer Sundae Weekender is set in Leicester and hosts quality indie and alternative music whilst showcasing the best local talent. Initially, Summer Sundae was a one day festival but is now a full three day weekender, hence the name. Tinchy Stryder, Mumford & Sons and Eliza Doolittle were amongst the acts which performed at Summer Sundae Weekender 2010, setting the standard for more top name acts in this summer. There are several stages, plenty of bars, two campsites and there will be over 100 artists performing between the festivals dates, 12th, 13th and 14th August.
