The Ocelot celebrated 11 years of being at the forefront of the arts scene with an intimate knees up - The Night of the Ocelot, in the company of Wiltshire’s finest comedy rapper Chip Daddy, and self-styled ‘Scrumpy and Western’ stalwart Corky as well as singer/songwriter Oli Norman who kicked things off.

It was not only the 11th birthday celebration of the Ocelot, but also a chance to bid a fond farewell to the mag’s music editor Mike ‘shorty’ Barham who at 6’8” holds the record for being the tallest Foo Fighters fan in the whole of Devizes.
The get-together, in the darkened recesses of The Vic, one of Swindon’s best live music venues, saw a select gathering of friends, fans and curious people gather to mark this momentous double event. In the words of Group Editor and Ocelot founder Jamie Hill, “If the Ocelot was a child, it would be going to secondary school now!”
