GRAB your and tent, as a popular festival returns for its fifth year.

Jurassic Fields Music Festival will return to Asker Meadows in Bridport on Friday, July 13 and Saturday, July 14, for all the family to enjoy.

The acts have been confirmed for this festival, with both established acts and acts hoping to make a breakthrough on the bill.

This year the Saturday headliners are The Dualers, a nine piece Ska and Reggae band, who are being viewed as a big coup for the festival, with the band promising to bring their "never to be missed" performance to their fan base.

Friday night's headliners are the Dub Pistols.

Other acts include Tankus the Henge, Dr and the Medics, Rusty Shackle, The Leggomen, Shelby's Elbow are just some of the 40 acts confirmed.

Dan Broom, festival organiser, said: "The festival is in its fifth year and it all started when myself and a friend decided West Dorset hasn't got a proper music festival, so we thought how hard could it be?

"We found out it was pretty hard, but made sure we set about it the proper way, going through the proper channels.

"Our first year was pretty successful, we had one stage and 500 people attend.

"It has bloomed since then.

"We are already 40 per cent up on tickets from last year, which proves we are doing something right."

The festival prides itself on allowing local musicians to share a bill with such established performers, with some going on to taste success.

Weymouth's Lauren Bannon, a finalist on this year's The Voice, has appeared twice at the festival.

The long-term objective of the festival has young musicians in mind.

Dan said: "Long-term we want to build either a music studio or a music hall, an open space for young musicians to come and learn how to use the music equipment."

In addition to the music, there is also comedy on Saturday afternoon, hosted by Bridport's own Tom Glover, who will be joined by Luke Honnoraty and Mike Cox.

There will also be a number of food stalls selling different cuisines, arts and craft stalls, and a designated children's play area.

Tickets for the not-for-profit community event are currently £30 for an adult weekend ticket, with children under-13 accompanied by an adult gaining free entry to the festival.

The event relies solely on the help of volunteers, as well as sponsorship from local companies.
