After a decade-long hiatus, Guildford’s leading music festival, GuilFest made a triumphant return to its home ground of Stoke Park. Joining the reunion, bassist and co-founder of seminal bands Joy Division and New Order, Peter Hook and his band The Light graced the main stage on the last day of this milestone weekender

Peter Hook & the Light are on their fourth or fifth tour of Aotearoa/New Zealand since 2010 when they formed three years after his colleagues in New Order gave him the cold shoulder.
