Ceremony #3 Festival – Esquires, Bedford

Ceremony #3 Festival – Esquires, Bedford

The third instalment of Bedford Esquires’ Ceremony festival took place on Saturday, with hundreds of music fans watching dozens of acts perform.

I took hundreds of photos throughout the day, but below is something of every act who played on the Main Stage and in Room 2 with a few photos from the Blender outdoor stage as well.

MAIN STAGE: Panic Shack / The Lounge Society / Snayx / Big Special / Enjoyable Listens / Junodef / Deadletter

ROOM 2: Hotel Lux / Divorce / She’s In Parties / Treeboy & Arc / bloody/bath / Dog Race / Noah & The Loaners

BLENDER OUTDOOR STAGE: Eddz / Viddy / Morning Tourist / Minnie Birch


The photos are broadly speaking in reverse chronological order. Deadletter opened the main stage as they were travelling up to Wakefield the same day to headline one of the stages at the Long Division Festival.

After Panic Shack brought Ceremony #3 to a close, the Enjoyable Listens played a second set in the venue’s downstairs bar, running through different covers.

Highlights of the day were probably Big Special in the main room and Treeboy & Arc in Room 2.

Great work again by all involved in putting Ceremony together.

You can find photos from Ceremony #1 and #2 on this site here.
