Dizzy Fish Set to Dazzle at CarFest 2025’s Wigwam Stage

Dizzy Fish are set to take the Wigwam Stage at The BarFest Arms hosted by Timothy Taylor’s on Friday, 22nd August, bringing their infectious mix of Britpop classics and more. With over 15 years of experience together, the band expertly recreates the unmistakable sound of the TFI Friday era, blending nostalgia with high-energy performances that never fail to ignite the crowd.

Having shared the stage with iconic acts like The Hoosiers, Feeder, Noel Gallagher, and Johnny Marr, Dizzy Fish have established themselves as festival favourites. Whether playing at packed festivals, pubs, or private events, their shows promise a good time filled with sing-along anthems from Britpop's golden age.

Get ready for a night of timeless hits and unmissable energy when Dizzy Fish rock the Wigwam Stage – a true highlight for any fan of 90s music!

Step into The BarFest Arms, hosted by Timothy Taylor’s, the festival’s much-loved pub setting pairs great live music with award-winning ales, including their celebrated pale ale, Landlord and their session IPA Hopical Storm, alongside a wide selection of lagers, wines, spirits, and soft drinks. Festival-goers can relax, enjoy a drink, and witness some of the UK’s most exciting up-and-coming musical talent in a lively and welcoming atmosphere. Throughout the weekend, the Wigwam Stage will feature an exciting mix of new artists and acoustic sets. 

Now in its fifteenth year, CarFest 2025, founded by Virgin Radio presenter Chris Evans, continues to offer far more than just cars. The festival brings together six distinct experiences in one, including FoodFest for culinary enthusiasts, KidsFest for family-friendly fun, RetroFest for all things vintage, SpaFest for wellness and relaxation, StarFest featuring celebrity guests and expert talks, and, of course, CarFest itself for high-speed thrills and breathtaking car displays.

Beyond its entertainment value, CarFest remains dedicated to its core mission of raising funds for UK children’s charities. Since its inception in 2012, the festival has donated all of its profits to charity, raising an impressive £1.26 million in 2024 alone. The 2025 edition will continue to support vital causes, including BBC Children in Need, Ellen MacArthur Cancer Trust, Rainbow Trust Children’s Charity, Starlight Children’s Foundation, Teenage Cancer Trust, Young Epilepsy, and the local Hampshire hospice Naomi House & Jacksplace.

With an unbeatable lineup of live music, family-friendly entertainment, and an unwavering commitment to charitable giving, CarFest 2025 promises to be one of the summer’s most unmissable events.
