Beautiful days is The Levellers own festival which they started to "offer not only the best in live music today but to re-create a community spirit that many events nowadays lack or choose to ignore. This event is about people young and old coming together and taking part in something that will be remembered for a long time." It's certainly succeeded in that aim, and has become one of the most popular festivals selling out year after year.

The dates for the 19th Beautiful Days are confirmed as from Friday 190th to Sunday 21st August 2022 at Escot Park, near Fairmile, Devon, with gates opening on the Thursday afternoon.
