Lovely Countryside Venue

It all happens in a small field by the church in our Gloucestershire village.  There are no commercial stalls; it's simply about great music, top-notch local food and drink and a relaxed friendly atmosphere.  
​And it's only 15 miles from Bristol.

Friendly Atmosphere

People tell us they love the friendly relaxed atmosphere at our festival.  The field is compact and safe. You can keep an eye on your kids while relaxing and enjoying the music, local beer and good food.

Making a Difference

Making a difference to our community is really important to us. We bring live music to schools and disadvantaged groups ahead of the festival and support local and national charities.​​
