The Directors of Quick Panda Productions, Ian Whittaker and Ben Hall, saidd: "The inaugural Rattler Fest was an immense amount of fun and we’re thrilled to be developing the concept for next year. Of course, coming out of the pandemic with the launch of a brand new festival was always going to be a risk but one we were very happy to take.

"Today, we can confidently say that it paid off both for us, our partners, and festivalgoers.

"But here at Quick Panda Productions we are always thinking of ways to develop and finesse our concepts and our decision to move Rattler Fest to the spring is rooted in the opportunity to bring something brand new – once again – to Cornwall.

"Nowhere in the county, or dare we say even the southwest, is there a festival that is going to have the same ‘spring break’ feel as Rattler Fest."

Sam and Joe Healey, Owners of Healeys Cyder Farm, said: "We have worked with Quick Panda Production on numerous events, and we are always delighted by their innovative ideas and their ability to provide visitors with something unique.

"Our collaboration on Rattler Fest is naturally close to our hearts as Rattler truly is at the core of our entire production.

"It’s just fantastic to see the Cornish success of Rattler celebrated in the best way possible and we can’t wait to welcome back visitors for the party in April 2022."
