Cornbury Festival: one-of-a-kind
 As well as poptastic fun in Scotland, we're also gearing up for eccentric fun in the Oxfordshire countryside this weekend at Cornbury Festival. The event has a close relationship with Oxfam stewards - so regular Cornbury fans will be used to seeing our orange tabbards around the place. As for our campaigners, we're Cornbury first-timers and we're hoping it lives up to its name as a dynamic and irresistible musical carnival.
This year features an eclectic mix of entertainment from circus performers, a fairground and hot air balloon flights, but we're especially looking forward to the one-of-a-kind farmers market with a dance floor! Music will come from the likes of Texas, Robert Plant, The Pretenders and new talent Narina Pallot - so no one can accuse Cornbury of being short of a legend or two!
Amongst all the fun in the sun (we hope), is a serious message - Make Trade Fair. We'll be telling everyone about unfair trade rules which keep producers around the world in poverty, and how they can help by signing our Big Noise Petition.
Tickets for the festival are still available in various combinations (camping/no camping etc) and can be ordered online or by calling 0870 118 16 36 - under 10s go free so bring the family! If it's the sport that's keeping you away then think again because both the World Cup final and the play-off will be shown on screens at the festival - we'll see you there.
Keep your eyes peeled next week for lots of lovely photos from the festival.
