Vote for UsRhythm Festival nominated in 5 categories in UK Festival Awards 2007

In the UK FESTIVAL AWARD nominations announced this week, RHYTHM FESTIVAL is put forward for an unprecedented five categories. Although just two years old, Rhythm Festival is fast becoming one of Europe's most prestigious outdoor music events.
The five categories that Rhythm Festival is nominated for are:
Best Small Festival/ Grass Roots Festival Award/ Fan-Friendly Festival Award/ Family Festival Award/ Best Toilets
Said Festival Director, Jim Driver: ‘I am absolutely delighted with these nominations. But it must be remembered that Rhythm Festival really is a team effort. There are dozens of people involved, from those handing out leaflets to the artists who appear, the staff and the site-owners, who couldn't be more helpful. And that's not forgetting the people who really matter: the ones who buy tickets and make it such a happy weekend.'
