Although some of us are looking further ahead towards other festivals, for others it kicks off this weekend with the Teddy Rocks Festival<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Since launching in 2011 as just as a small gig at The Greyhound pub in Blandford, Dorset, the festival has grown becoming a three-day event at Charisworth Farm. While it takes in everything from rock, punk, hardcore, pop, folk, dubstep and more, the main reason for the festival shouldn’t be ignored.<\/p>\n

Teddy20<\/strong><\/a> is a children’s cancer charity founded by Tom Newton. He and his family lost his 10-year-old brother Ted to a very rare bone cancer in 2010. Thanks to the growth of Teddy Rocks, the charity has raised over \u00a3167,000 in aid of families with children undergoing treatment for cancer.<\/p>\n

As Teddy Rocks<\/strong> returns to Charisworth Farm for the second year running, the 2018 edition is considered the biggest TRF<\/strong> yet!<\/p>\n

If you’re heading to Dorset (or not), we’ve put together a selection of bands from this weekend’s lineup as a preview of what to expect at Teddy Rocks 2018.<\/p>\n

With a packed lineup led by headliners Feeder<\/strong> and Ash<\/strong>, TRF<\/strong> plays host to a list of stellar names; Mallory Knox<\/strong>, InMe<\/strong>, Devil Sold His Soul<\/strong>, Black Peaks<\/strong>, Press To MECO<\/strong>, Palm Reader<\/strong>, Loathe<\/strong>, Milestones<\/strong>, Funeral Shakes<\/strong>, Nervus<\/strong> and more.<\/p>\n
