BW&BK; has received the following Bloodstock Open Air 2009 press release:

"Due to the huge success of our first ever VIP campsite which SOLD OUT last year we are pleased to confirm that we are bringing it back this year... only bigger and better. We are releasing a limited number of VIP tickets which will go on sale from Thursday, March 12th. For those of you who want a little bit extra from your camping experience why not come and party in style by booking one of our fantastic VIP packages.

We have various options available to suit all budgets, and whichever package you book you automatically get a whole host of extras in addition to your normal festival experience.

These include:

Access to the secure, private VIP camping area - this area has its own toilets and shower facilities, plus you will get a VIP parking pass which means you can park your vehicle in the VIP parking right next to the VIP campsite so no lugging your camping gear across the car parks for VIPs!

Your VIP weekend camping ticket also gets you access to the VIP hospitality area back stage which has its own bar and toilet facilities, plus you could find yourself hanging out with your favourite artists performing over the weekend! VIPs also get faster access to the festival site with a dedicated entrance so no need to queue! All VIPs will also get an exclusive Bloodstock VIP goody bag.

The VIP packages sold out last year and we expect the same again this year. So in order to get your hands on all this special treatment and exclusive treats all you need to do is book yourself one of our fantastic VIP camping options which will be online from Thursday 12th March.
