Families have another chance to go to the popular 3Foot Festival as organisers release 750 more tickets due to rising demand.

More than 14,000 tickets have already been snapped up by excited families and now orgnaisers have vowed to release more than 750 extra tickets so more families can join in the fun.

Only members of the public who are registered to the 3foot People mailing list will receive details on when the extra tickets will be on sale. Festival Director, Andy Winmill, said: "The 3foot People Festival has become a wonderful date in the region's calendar and this year tickets sold out faster than ever.

"We want to ensure that as many people as possible can share in the 3foot People experience, which is why we've worked hard to offer the same opportunity to a further 750 little ones and their carers."

The 3foot People Festival is a multi-award winning event curated especially for pre-school children, and is set to welcome around 15,000 people across three days within the beautiful grounds of Hylands Estate.
