New chart sensation Eliza Doolittle, currently sitting at 3 in the Top 10 Album Charts, has joined our line-up for for 2010, just as Saturday tickets to the festival have sold out; weekend tickets are also expected to sell out well in advance of the event.
We’ve got some rave tribute acts at Bella 2010.
Not only do we have The Remains – the only Ramones tribute band in Achiltibuie – but also on offer are: Rachel Rabin as Maybe Winehouse – an affectionate tribute to that young lady – and Gimme Abba – with a fantastic 60 minute set of Abba hits.
C’mon – you know – know, know, know you’ll love all that.
Up, up and away go The Chang Gang at Bella this year, our first venture into aerobatics displays; we’ve seen these guys operate before and they are awesome. Bob Davey and his wingman, one of only 12 aerobatics teams registered in the UK, will thrill you on Saturday 7th August (weather permitting!).
How many friends do you meet at Bella every year and say we must stop just bumping into each other like this? This year we’re going to give you a hand with a 1928 dodgems, one of a couple of vintage fairground rides that are coming to Bella for the first time. A rather superior way of bumping into each other.
...Play on! at Bella where Finding The Will Theatre Co present ‘Bard Heads’: DUST BEHIND THE DOOR -the story of Hermia from A Midsummer Night's Dream, after 20 years of marriage to Lysander; and THE WHIRLIGIG OF TIME - how Malvolio from Twelfth Night achieves his revenge a mere 3 months after his public humiliation. All of this in our new venue, The Temple.
Is so back! On the morning of Saturday 7th August, try your luck in four categories of mountain bike race (over and under 12; male and female) over timed laps – approx 30 mins for kids and 90 minutes for adults in all - in Belladrum forest. There will be a prize-giving at the Potting Shed stage at 1400 the same day. More details in the entertainments section at www.tartanheartfestival.co.uk
This August, St Helier takes the high road to Scotland as Bella’s official cider. We think you’ll love their apple cider and their celebrated pear cider, both on offer at Bella.
