8 Amazing Local Acts (Oh And The Cure) Performing At Rock On The Lawns

This music festival is about more than The Cure! Besides music there’s also gourmet food trucks, a beer garden and rock n roll

 

The Cure have been Indie pop and rock icons since 1978, and ever since we announced that they’re playing Rock on the Lawns, the festival has become all about them. While The Cure is playing here to celebrate their 40th anniversary, it’s important not to get lost in The Cure mania. there are other, local acts playing the festival, and they’re not too bad themselves.



Here you can check out those local acts, to remind yourself what they’re all about and to get in the mood for this electric event taking place on 21 March 2019 at Kenilworth Racecourse.
