One of our favourite festivals is back with one of our favourite themes- Circus!

Band highlights include De La Soul, AlunaGeorge, Lucy Rose, Public Service Broadcasting, The Correspondents, Dizraeli and the small Gods, Mary Epworth, Revere and more.

But as always, there's much more than music on offer. Run from the founder's farmhouse and backyard, there's even a swimming pool for if the weather's kind. The site is refreshingly small and intimate- you won't lose people for days at a time or spend hours queuing for the loo. It's just the right size to be able to still discover something new everyday- this year immersive theatre in the Forest of Freaks sounds like it will be full of surprises, whilst London favourites Art Macabre and Salon London will be bringing their brand of arts and entertainment to the festival.
