Welcome, Welcome, Welcome.
After out fifth outing at Stourport Civic, in March 2024, we are overjoyed to share with you
that Fusion 6 is on the boil. We hope you all had an AMAZING weekend, despite fire alarms
‘n all that malarkey (and yes, we’ve had all the jokes – “No, they’re NOT playing “Smoke On
The Water” as an encore, No, Arthur Brown is NOT in the building and yes, Franck is
definitely on fire during his current tour” !!).
There were a few hiccups with the sound over the weekend, but hopefully it didn’t detract
from your enjoyment. Needless to say, the videos from the weekend are currently being
processed and will be online soon, so please bear with us.
The lineup for Fusion 6 (March 7 th – 9 th 2025) is in place and we have “leap into the abyss”
pre-sale tickets available for £155 for the entire weekend, expiring on Marc 31 st . At which
point the price will rise to £160, VIP is sold out.
We did try a reserved seating option in 2024, but it sadly sank into chaos, not helped by the
sad and untimely loss of GigJuice mastermind Steve Egginton ☹ ☹ So next year, if you
want/need a particular seat, sorry to say you ‘ll have to arrive early. Doors open at 16.45hrs
on 7 th March for VIP and 17.00hrs for the rest of you….
We hope you approve of our lineup for 2025 as once again we have bands from the
continent joining us – Karmamoi and Ellesmere for Italy, Von Hertzen Brothers from Finland,
HipoKamp Projekt from Poland, Lazuli from France and Yesterdays from Hungary topped off
with some awesome UK bands – Kyros, Tiger Moth Tales, Rain, The Mighty Bard, The Book
Of Revelations, Grace And Fire, Dominic Sanderson (the new Steven Wilson !!) Shaven
Primates, Spriggan Mist (returning after their incredible set at Fusion 4 in 2022), the mighty
Solstice (their third time, surely one of the most exciting UK Prog bands at this present time
!!) and opening for us on 7 th March, Buzz Elliott, recreating his role from Fusion 1 back in
2018. A one man orchestra with a wealth of effects pedals, what a way to kick things off.
Calabbria Pizza and Sam’s Jamaican Food will be returning, joined in 2025 by Panda
Catering (Chinese street food - who should have been with us this year, but struggled to get
their pitch setup due to vehicle problems) along with a good selection of drinks and bar food.
A healthy selection of merch will be available, progrock.co.uk will once again be joining us in
the foyer, the Fusion raffle and charity auction round off what we hope will be yet another
memorable weekend for you all.
Sincerely looking forward to welcoming you all back to The Civic (preferably without fire
alarm accompaniment !!). Have a phenomenal 2024 and we look forward to seeing you at a
gig/festival soon.
Huge hugs and kisses - Steve and Lou xxx
