Cotton Clouds Festival

  • Rick Lees

Cotton Clouds Festival is a two day 5,000 capacity independent music festival based in Saddleworth, Oldham. Our debut event in 2017 sold out weeks in advance and caught the eye of the national news which resulted in a feature in the Guardian's best things to do that month. The wide spanning family friendly lineup has so far included Sister Sledge, The Lightning Seeds, The Coral, The SugarHill Gang, Starsailor, The Pigeon Detectives, Chali 2na, The Blinders, PINS, The Whip, Hyde Park Brass, The Orielles and many more. The festival also includes a carefully curated arts programme offering musical workshops for children, lantern making and an evening carnival parade in collaboration with local charity Global Grooves.
