This 3, 000 capacity event will undoubtedly sell out as organisers stuck up on exotic performances of awe and wonderment and promise electric atmosphere to tingle your senses to say the least.

This is a luxury party set up with accommodation ranging from traditional camping to tipis, beach huts or double decker bus. Guests could also book a tent to be erected and in place on arrival. Pampering doesn’t stop here as one can swim in open-air swimming pools (complete with electric palm trees), enjoy game of croquet or to be a guest of honour in specially commissioned geisha house between many other titillating attractions including oddly satisfying glowing field of Electric Corn.

Richard Mauger, co-founder of A Rum Do, says: "We'll be making sure that at every opportunity people are comfortable. At the event, people will always have somewhere to sit and relax, from parasol shaded seats outside in the daytime, to cozy, clean lounges where relaxing horizontally doesn't mean getting your back covered with mud."

Festival will showcasing for the first time in UK electrifying fun masters Jingu in what promises to be a visual feast of electric fireworks (staying up as long as desired as opposed to traditional ones) and other electric mesmerising installations

There are three main stages: the Saddlespan open air stage, the Crystal Palace Spiegeltent (a ballroom of mirrors, stained glass and waited tables) and a huge double peaked tent, Madonna’s bra, hosting live music and acoustic sets during the day, and DJs, top comedians, and cabaret performances in the evening. Music will focus on breakbeat and hip hop from artistes such as Bugz in the Attic, Babyhead, The Nextmen, Ben Westbeech, MC Wrec, Quantic, and Skitz, Kid Carpet, Rodney P, Toxic Sound System and one and only DJ Mr Scruff.

In cabaret, the emphasis is on fully produced shows, including comedy from the likes of Rufus Hound and Alex Horne.. Saturday evening is Showtime and extravagant or (even vaguely flamboyant) garb is invited, but not expected.

A RUM Do will also reach for the metaphysical with The Paranormal People to explore the space where everyday normality is torn apart and bizarre visions of ultimate human potential are exposed.

A Rum Do has been fortunate to secure the rogue yogi, Sheshah, and the breathless Underwater Man, both of whom will execute logic-defying achievements. Rogue yogi Sheshah is the last living descendant of Sheshal, the Brahmin of the Air, who first demonstrated his levitating ability nearly two hundred years ago in India.

Before an awestruck audience, the yogi will float almost four feet above the ground, completely unsuspended, as a sitar plays calmly in the background. By contrast, and in an exploit that far exceeds the achievements of the great Houdini, Underwater Man - capable of sustaining normal body and brain functions under water for extended periods of time - will be submerged into a locked, clear Perspex tank of water and will remain there voluntarily for a full half hour, without any tell-tale bubbles or air tubes. This is the first time this feat has been attempted in the UK.

The keys to A Rum Do's success are meticulous planning and organisation. Richard Mauger continues: "Essentially, we want to make the festival a self-indulgent experience, rather than a survivalist one. There's been a lot of careful, intelligent thinking behind our production - it goes far beyond sticking bands in a field and just asking them to do their thing. We have very high production values and a strong love of comfortable surroundings AND we really love a good party!"

Tickets are £85 for the full event with day passes available from £35.
Accompanying children up to 14 years old will get in free.
