Creation fest is a small FREE chilled Christian music festival held in Woolacombe, Devon. Talks and seminars in the day and the bands are on the main stage from late afternoon. Which gives you a chance to pop to the awesome beach (be safe) or local town to stock up on chocolate.
There is an emphasis in the talks on the American version of creationist teaching, but it is interesting. http://www.creationfest.org.uk/
Its small
Friendly
im not sure if the The Kry play in 2007 but im sure you will enjoy the music *see the thekry.com
Good safe place for young people to chill.
