FOLLOWING its runaway success last year, Endorse-It-In-Dorset festival is back for another three days of musical mayhem.

Held in the beautiful surroundings of Dorset countryside near Sixpenny Handley, the festival takes place from Friday, August 11 to Sunday, August 14.

A number of favourite acts from 2005 will be returning, such as Pronghorn, Babyhead and the Highliners, and in all 75 musical acts are promised, who will perform over three stages throughout the weekend.

Neville Staple, Pronghorn, Nucleus Roots and Babyhead are the main bands on the Friday with Eat Static, The Beat and Hayseed Dixie on the Saturday, and Mad Professor, Senser, Cracked Actors, The Highliners, RDF/Military Surplus, Here and Now and Dub Dadda on the Sunday.

A bigger site has been used this year enabling a larger area for children, healing area, chill-out zone and family camping area.

New for 2006 is a comedy session, stripey-jumper walkabout theatre, and the exclusive wig on' casino with roulette and blackjack tables with the chance to win festival goodies including tickets to next year's Endorse-It festival.

DJs will keep you dancing through the night after the bands have finished playing each night.

Sunday has also been delegated as ladies' day, and ladies are invited to don their frocks.

If you want to camp in luxury, then you can book yourself a tepee in the tepee village, or, of course, you can bring your own camping equipment.

Tickets are available via the website at www.lgofestivals.com.
