INTERNATIONAL bands are among the acts set to play at a rock festival in Dorset next year.

The festival aims to raise money for Teddy20, a children's cancer charity founded by Tom Newton and his family after he lost his 10 year old brother Ted to a rare bone cancer.

Now set to return between April 29 until May 1, 2022, the organisers have unveiled their line-up which will see US rock band Eagles of Death Metal will headline the three-day festival.

The three-day event will see Skindred, Newton Faulkner, The Skints, Terrorvision The Wurzels, Gaz Brookfield, The Snuts and many more play at Charisworth farm.

A festival spokesman said: “We are hugely grateful for the all the bands that stuck with us and all the hard work that has been put in by them and their representatives to get us to this stage.

“We are also humbled by everyone that held onto their tickets, it has all been truly remarkable.”

Tickets are available for standard and quiet weekend camping, as well as glamping and pre-pitched tent hire. Tickets are available through teddyrocks.co.uk/tickets
