Stages & Lineups
Truck's always had a heartfelt Do-It-Yourself attitude and a talent for spotting the next big thing. At Truck we book bands we like, and bands we hope you'll fall in love with too – it's all about discovering your new favourite band. This year's headliners are MEW and TEENAGE FANCLUB.

WILD NOTHING
We've got six stages at Truck, offering a musical cornucopia of everything from Indie-Rock to Americana, Country to Post-Rock, and from earnest singer-songwriters to the bleeps, beeps and dirty bass at the Cowshed rave.
Music Times
Friday 6pm - Midnight
Saturday 12 midday - 2.30 am
Sunday 10am -10pm
THE TRUCK STAGE
The original main stage at TRUCK – still using the same flat bed trailer we used in 1999, the reason behind the name but bigger and better than ever before.
THE BARN
Yeah, it holds cows the rest of the year, but during the festival it becomes THE BARN STAGE, during the day it plays host to the buzziest new bands and on saturday night it transforms with lazer powered intensity for the Cow-shed Rave.
THE MARKET STAGE
Playing host to the more acoustic and country based offerings at TRUCK, Sunday will be hosted by radio legend and Steventon resident 'Whispering' Bob Harris
THE BEAT-HIVE
A 20m diameter geo-desic dome catering for those that like a higher BPM than the average TRUCKER, bleep, beeps, bangs and dancing. Last year saw Errors and Daedulus positively smash it.
last.fm presents... THE VILLAGE PUB
Based next to the TRUCK bar for easy access, the Village pub is the place to discover the latest talent. This year it's sponsored by last.fm, which we love 'cos it's another great way to discover music.
THE PAVILION
This stage returns hosting all kinds of performance poetry, comedy, cabaret and solo acoustic performances, in partnership with comedy from THE FREE BEER SHOW, acoustic open-mic from the long-running CATWEAZLE CLUB, spoken-word poetry slams hosted by HAMMER & TONGUE, and royal ribaldry in spades from QUEEN OF CLUBS.
...And in the far field throughout the weekend and late into the night...
BOXFORD TUNE DIVERSITY & LION ENTERTAINMENT
A new addition to TRUCK this incandescent stage provides a peripheral party late into the dark of the night, with Fresh Out The Box party DJ sets at peak times, and laid back electronica and deep sub dub for when your head and feet need a rest.
KIDS TENT MUSIC
Keep the little 'uns entertained with sing-alongs, and musical munchkins.
