The music at Pilton Festival has evolved over the years and we have been lucky to have some amazing bands to entertain the crowds. This year we have decided to source our acts for the Bottom Stage from the great musical support we enjoy locally. It gives us the chance to showcase some of our rich local talent whilst giving the performers an opportunity to play to their own community.
Follow the highlighted links to check out the background and music of each of the performers. We will complete their stories with photographs, video and links as we get them.
