"Great line-up, good vibes, green space... Ramblin' Man Fair is a classic rock lover's happy place." - Classic Rock Magazine
“Ramblin’ Man Fair Transforms Mote Park each year into its own raunchy turn off Route 66” - Planet Rock Magazine
"The highlight of the rock music calendar that sees the best genres of music come together in perfect 'southern harmony'.” - Powerplay Magazine
“As always, the Prog stage at Ramblin’ Man played host to a varied and compelling line-up, from the impossibly glamorous Goldray to explosive Finnish maestros the Von Hertzen Brothers. Topping it all was the legendary Fish, lots of songs from Clutching At Straws, and not a dry eye in the house. And, unlike some festivals, there were no queues at the bar.” - Prog Magazine
"A laid-back and most enjoyable rock festival." - Record Collector Magazine
“Long live Ramblin’ Man Fair” - Johnnie Walker BBC Radio 2 Rock Show

UGLY KID JOE (Saturday Main Stage) – Formed in 1987, the Californian five piece burst onto the scene in 1991 with their multi-platinum debut EP ‘As Ugly As They Want Be’ - which shattered all records at that time becoming the biggest selling EP of all time. They followed this up with critically acclaimed records “Americas Least Wanted”, “Menace to Sobriety” and “Motel California” through the 1990s, which spawned an array of hit singles such as the truly global anthem “Everything About You” and the likes of “Cats in the Cradle”, “Neighbor” and “Busy Bee”. After a hiatus of over a decade the band returned with EP “Stairway to Hell” and then 2015’s critically acclaimed album “Uglier Than They Used To Be”. In Whitfield Crane, the band has one of the most engaging and entertaining rock front-man on the current scene.
