Womad Charlton Park
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Womad Charlton Park is the name given to the WOMAD festival held in England, replacing Womad Reading, the last of which took place in 2006.
The first festival took place from 27 July to 29 July 2007 in Charlton Park in Malmesbury, Wiltshire, England.
The WOMAD festival in England had been held in Reading, Berkshire since 1990, until the announcement was made on 4 October 2006 that the festival in 2006 was to be the final one. On 19 October, it was announced that the replacement festival would be held on the same dates as the Womad Reading festival was due to, but in Malmesbury in Wiltshire.
Artists who performed can be seen here.
In light of the mud caused by poor weather prior to the festival and on the Saturday night, many festival goers nicknamed the festival WOMUD.
