The venue has now changed to The Rockingham Forest Hotel (Best Western)

UNITY FEST is a free festival bringing people together & sharing some love through the music. The event is sponsored by Unite The Union Northants Central Branch & Vive le Rock Magazine.

Its FREE to attend but we ask that you make a donation on the day to support this years charities, Cancer Research UK, The British Heart Foundation & Project 1615 Homeless Charity based in Northampton. So lets all raise as much as we can, you would normally pay around £40-£50 to see these artists & bands at other festivals, so even if you donate just £10 then you are helping to make a difference to peoples lives!!

We will also be holding a raffle with signed CD's, T-Shirts, Portable Battery chargers & other great prizes.

There will be various stalls & speakers from Unite including the Regional Secretary Paresh Patel.

If you are looking to stay over then call The Rockingham Forest Hotel on 01536 401348 .

Single Rooms are £70 & Twin / Double are £80, both include breakfast, just quote UNITY FEST when you book.
