Ben & Jerry’s Double Scoop Summer Sundae Festival

Published On June 15, 2011 | By Verge | Lifestyle, Music, What's On

Ben & Jerry’s Double Scoop Sundae music festival will be returning to Clapham Common this year! Enjoy twice the scoops and twice the fun with the addition of a second venue at Manchester’s Heaton Park.

The festival, which has boasted seven years of bringing fans, ice cream and music together at London’s Clapham Common, is also giving unsigned artists a chance to showcase their talent in the Be Herd competition.

Two winning entries will have the chance to perform to a crowd of up to 15,000 people at either the London or Manchester centre stages, in addition to receiving a prize of £1,000 – a pretty sweet deal.

Interested artists can submit their entries on the Ben & Jerry’s website where they will be reviewed by a panel of judges, as well as the public.

In addition to the endless supplies of free ice cream, fun activities and competitions, festival goers will get to enjoy the eclectic lineup the festival has to offer this year, including headliners Maximo Park
and Ocean Colour Scene.

The Double Scoop Sundae is definitely the best way to enjoy a hot summer weekend. With a family atmosphere, reasonably priced tickets and over 20 different Ben & Jerry’s flavours being offered, it would be a crime to miss.

Events will take place at both London and Manchester locations during July 23-24. The full artist lineup and information on festival tickets can be found at www.benjerry.co.uk/sundae.
