We are totally unique non commercial events, meaning we have no rip off food stalls, bars or tat stalls on our sites. Why you ask? Well it's to save you all money, here you can bring all of the food and drink you like to our events and not have to worry about putting you hand in your pocket whilst with us.

We set this up and keep this ethos of low cost throughout WF, because as a family we were sick of the prices everything cost to do something nice together. Everything was too expensive and during the school holidays it was even more expensive to get away.

What was available were either unfriendly campsites, or drug filled festivals that didn't feel safe for our children.
So in September 2016, we decided to do something about it.
We had absolutely no idea just what was going to happen.

The How

We posted on facebook looking for likeminded people/families to join us camping somewhere wild, just to sit around a camp fire, play guitars and chat into the early hours.

Wild Festival Chat Group was born and amazingly we had over 500 people join in the first week.
We were all looking for exactly the same thing as us and the new group was absolutely buzzing!

Then a lovely member offered us use of her field on Ashlyn farm in Lincolnshire, on one condition that we were to use the field before it waterlogged.

This meant if we were to do it, we only had 3 weeks to put it all together!
So with no money, no experience and being completely reliant on everyone being volunteers, we agreed.
I mean, how hard could it be?

Well it wasn't easy at all, there were a few grey hairs along the way, but it was worth every one for the incredible, spine tingling event we had.

We had some excellent musicians turn up and nearly 300 people attended.

We met and made some great friends that weekend, we quickly realised we'd found what we'd been looking for.
we couldn't wait to do another one.

After three more festival style campouts, it became apparent we'd found our calling.

We've grown massively over the years, but our ethos of providing affrodable fun and camping breaks in nature hasn't changed.

We now offer 6 school holiday pop up camping events, in 6 beautiful locations throughout Spring and Summer.
We've got lots of members in our super friendly facebook chat group, a real mix bag of age groups, lovely people and friendly dinosaurs.

We've been blessed to have such a great bunch of welcoming, sharing, helpful and friendly people join us over the years.

We've got a massive catalogue of brilliant musicians, bands, entertainers and artists, with hand picked pop up campsite locations that are truly lovely places to stay.
On top of all of this we've got entertainment programs for all ages to enjoy.
Children actually leave electrical gadgets in the van or tent here! It's really nice to see.

We're very proud and passionate about Wild Festivals, after a humble start we've grown into a firmly established, family favourite and a real camping community.
Wild Festivals has created thousands of new friendships, relationships, partnerships and even some marriages.

It's truly an amazing thing
