Global credit card brand American Express has named Splashy Fen as one
of the top five events to attend in April this year.
Alongside heavyweight global events such as Kings Day in Amsterdam, the
Sydney Comedy Festival in Australia, Baisakhi in India and the Toronto Food and
Drink Festival in Canada, this accolade is seen as a reward for the encouraging
turnaround that the festival has received since The Splashy Fen Revival took
place last year.
American Express Essentials hosts a popular website that presents a
selection of the most original travel and lifestyle trends from around the
world.
“We are thrilled to be associated with these world-class events” says
Stu Berry, Festival Director. “But more than that, we are proud of what we have
achieved in such a short space of time. And we most certainly will not stop
here. Our aim is to make each festival bigger and better than the one before;
bringing more of the music fans love, more of the entertainment they crave and
more of the joy that comes from being out in the beautiful Drakensberg with
family and friends.”
In addition, the article asks readers which of the five events mentioned
make them want to drop everything and pack their bags. 89% of readers voted
Splashy Fen.
The 2017 Splashy Fen Music Festival is set to wow fans this Easter from April
13 to 16, with over 200 local and international artists, more than 50 food and
craft stalls, morning yoga sessions, trail runs, live art and more.
