Bob Dylan and Peter Gabriel for Hop Farm Music Festival

The brainchild of Waterford's own Vince Power, the Hop Farm Music Festival returns for its fifth year with the star-studded line-up we've come to expect from the event.
The iconic, mercurial Bob Dylan will head the whole thing up, and he'll be joined on the bill by Peter Gabriel (who will bring along his New Blood Orchestra for some grand reworkings of his fine back catalogue) and Brit Pop pioneers Suede.

But that's not all, in a UK festival exclusive, the enigmatic Damien Rice will also perform. He'll be joined by Primal Scream, My Morning Jacket, Maximo Park, Patti Smith, Joan Armatrading, The Psychedelic Furs, Lianne Li Havas and many more.

The independent festival takes place between Friday June 29 and July 1 in Paddock Wood, Kent. Tickets are now on sale, with weekend tickets going for £150 and children under 12 gaining admittance for free. For full details, head to [link]www.hopfarmfestival.com[/link].
