(Image: Upton Country Park) Festival organiser Serena Wren said: "Brilliant music, fantastic family company and great food, it's all the fun of the fare – both gastronomic and musical. Upton House Food & Music Festival has its own special atmosphere, laid back but never quiet, lively but not hectic. "The whole idea is to bring the flavour of much bigger events to what we see as Poole's communal back garden – so it feels like you're joining some mates for a nicely chilled party." The festival will feature tributes to Arctic Monkeys, Kasabian, Red Hot Chilli Peppers, Kings of Leon, U2 and The Police. There will also be performances from local bands and artists. Food on offer will range from fresh local seafood to Asian cuisine with a western twist. There will also be a variety of local craft beers and ciders.
