Amidst great excitement, Red Rooster Festival announced today that the 2021 Festival will take place in Suffolk on the weekend of 25-27 August 2021 with a Full line up.   Euston Hall will once again open the gates on its 300-acre rolling parkland site to host the long-awaited return of fantastic live music in an outdoor setting.  The bonus is that the Bank Holiday Monday allows time to recover or travel home.   Red Rooster offers the best in Cajun, Soul, Rock ‘n’ Roll, Blues, Roots and Country and features well-known artists and festival favourites alongside up-and-coming newcomers on a packed bill across multiple stages.

Richard Hawley is confirmed as the headliner for Saturday night.  With his ninth Studio album “Further” hitting the UK album charts at No.3, his ability to cut across styles, time and, in some instances, place, is down to Hawley’s deep and intuitive understanding of music itself, and his love of country, blues and rock ‘n’ roll.
