Valley Fest 2017.

Valleyfest is an awesome event that combines great music, great food and great family fun in a wonderful rural location. Listen out for the sights and sounds that will surround you, from the trombones and trumpets, violins and guitars, drums of all shapes and sizes, glorious voices lifted in song, the stomping feet of everyone dancing, sumptuous smells of freshly cooked organic local food, cookery classes with top chefs, the chatter of everyone enjoying food together with our Midnight Feast and Sunday Picnic, shouts of laughter and surprise at various happenings round every corner, screams of delight of children running free and getting to know the farm animals close up, glitter seemingly falling from the sky, the roar and warmth of the firepits and the hum of happiness all around – welcome to Valley Fest!

It’s a festival that’s also just been awarded the stamp of approval by Festival Kidz!, making it one of their ‘Recommended’ festivals.

The team said “We have awarded these to the festivals that our writers return to year after year – those that we would feel like if we missed it we would be missing out. All our writers are festival-loving families so we feel that these awards celebrate the best of the family friendly festivals.”
