The Reasons team said they are “delighted, relieved and damn right excited” about the line-up for the Islands’ newest family friendly festival.
The festival, which is in its first year, aims to celebrate artists with Island connections.Ben Newman and John O’Connell, the festival organisers, said: “As with any festival or event it is the Jersey crowd that makes any production truly special. Despite this being wholly a celebration of local artists, our production values remain as creative and strong as any of our other events.”
“We can’t wait for the Island’s people to take ownership and be a part of Jersey’s newest, brightest, loveliest, local family friendly festival, while together we create yet another solid fixture in the island’s cultural landscape’s calendar.”

In addition to a packed music line up, Reasons to be Grateful will offer festival goers a variety of workshops and activities in the ‘Family Zone’. Sitas Circus School, Total Mayhem Breakdancing and The Awakening Club will all feature at the event alongside cooking demonstrations and interactive art opportunities.
Reasons to be Grateful will be held at Howard Davis Park on 30 April, 2016.
