Strange fruit

The Mean Fiddler Organisation, in the next step of their euro-market expansion plan, stump up for one-quarter of Germany's massive Bizarre festival

The Hot Press Newsdesk, 22 Aug 2002

Not content with taking out a stake in Glastonbury, the Mean Fiddler Organisation has bought a 25% share in Germany's 50,000-capacity Bizarre festival.

"This is a significant step in expanding our festival base and we're looking to acquire and develop more festivals in the near future, by expanding into other European markets," enthuses Fiddler MD Melvyn Benn.

The plan is to tie Bizarre in with the Reading, Leeds and Glasgow Gig On The Green festivals which all take place during the second-half of August.
