The Secret Garden Party is billed as a crazy festival party where everyone joins in and brimming with ideas and creativity. The not-for-profit festival is held in a secret location in East Anglia without sponsorship and offers an eclectic musical mix. The dates for 2009 have been confirmed as Thursday 23rd to Sunday 26th July.

The event will also see style and decadence from The Finer Delights. For the ladies, The Boudoir, whilst the boys will host something of a Gentleman's Club. As well as The Holistic Camp and activities for the younger gardeners, the details of which will be announced soon, every turn will find a new revolution unfolding with Art Installations and other Action Camps.

Tickets are on sale, priced at £137 for an adult for the four days, teen tickets (14-17) are priced at £110, and under 13s get in for free, but need to have a ticket. The price includes all booking and postage fees, parking, and camping.

Set in a 10 acre landscaped garden, bordering a river and lake, The Secret Garden is a garden-party-gone-crazy. As well as music there's loads of activities for kids and adults alike, and it is more of a party experience offering mud wrestling, skinny dipping, bubble wrap popping, sock wrestling, twilight maypole dancing, silent disco dancing, raft-building, body painting, karaoke singing, counselling from the bad advice bears and crafts.
