This festival has been rescheduled from August. All original tickets remain valid.
Situated in between Brighton and London in the beautiful ancient deer park, Eridge, just outside Tunbridge Wells, Playgroup Festival caters for a mere 3,500 guests, it’s small, beautifully formed and teeming with art, music, magic and laughter.
This festival is all about making new friends, being kidnapped by aliens, learning taxidermy, being part of a marching band, taking part in the worlds longest pub quiz, helping to create giant sculptures, listening the best in live Electronica, World, Folk, Reggae, Funk and Swing, and all the while enjoying cabaret, arts installations and locally sourced food in stunningly beautiful surroundings.
And even with five stages of music, two 24 hour cinema tents, excellent kids area, tons of walkabout performers, outdoor circus, games arena, local traders, healing area, cabaret and talks tent and loads of individually curated ‘mini performance’ areas, the whole this is still powered by renewable energy!
The theme for this year's festival is 'Lost Toys'. Will you take up the challenge and join one of the 8 lost toy tribes?
