It's here! The schedule emerges

It's here! The take over schedule is ready and rocking and is looking great for the two day festival. Within the two days the activites are amazing and are suitable for people of any age to come and have a go.

This blog is soon going to undergo a transformation and become a dedicated Take Over website, so this schedule is a bit of a stop gap. Have a look and see what you like!

To book tickets use the Corn Exchange website (listings for Saturday and Sunday are going up there as I write).
