Venues

The Rocket Festival 2008 expects a large proportion of its audience to be young families. Providing a safe place for children to play and be entertained is of primary importance to the festival organisers. Our kids are going to be there too! The Kids Area will offer supervised games and activities for children and parents.

Main StageThe main stage field is the heart of the festival. With the breathtaking backdrop of the mountains Sierra de Almijarra the main stage is the perfect setting to enjoy a star studded line-up.

Market stalls, shops and eateries The Market Area provides an exciting variety of local and international clothing and craft work ( jewellery, leather work, ceramics etc.) for sale from Spain, South America, Africa, India, Iran, China, Tibet, Thailand and Indonesia. Also on offer will be a wide selection of quality food, organic products, and juices, bars and cafés offering specialities from Spain, Mexico, India Thailand and the Middle East.

Cantina Galactica bandThe main bar at the festival in 2008 is the Cantina Galactica, an extravagantly themed Space Port drinking den for the new settlers, aliens, robots, bounty-hunters,jedis and all the flotsam and jetsam of the galaxy that fancy a pan-galactic gargle blaster (G&T to you and me) and a knees-up.

Los hombres de gris han aterrizado en el Rocket festival para liarte y robarte todo tu tiempo. Tu tiempo es tu vida, un juego de sucesos entretejidos, de pasados confusos, presentes difusos y futuros inciertos. Pero la cashiopea conseguirá atraparte porque allí sentirás, simplemente, que el tiempo se desvanece, que el niñ@ que eres resurge para desplazar a la persona mayor que te crees que eres. Nos quedaremos con vuestro tiempo; os quedareis con todo y más.
