"In 2012, Rhythm Festival returns to the Mansion House at Old Warden Park and becomes "Rhythm Festivals": BIGGER and BETTER and "3 Festivals in 1". Weekend passes are available for all three, but if you were on a budget and just wanted to attend the Rhythm Folk Festival or the Rhythm & Blues Festival that's fine.

All three Rhythm Festivals share better, improved children's areas, camping and accommodation facilities as well as food stalls and indoor attractions like the Tavern Bar and Comedy Theatre. There will also be three separate "villages", centred around the Folk Festival Stage, the Rhythm & Blues Stage and the Big Rhythms Stage, with specialised attractions and performances".
