Also on site are the Psychedeliyurt, the Shnicker Snack Stage featuring comedy and acoustic sessions and the Buskers Box. Plus art workshops, live graffiti, face painting and of course the regulation hooping classes.

Performance art

Static and real-life installations from Shambush include human playing cards playing snap, Kate Bush Aerobics, and 'The Gin Palace'.

Fancy dress theme

The Jabberwocky despises all things colourful, out of the ordinary, unique and indulgent, which is exactly what GocStock loves! Come furry, come feathered, come bejewelled in colour, joy and splendour.

Green ethos

GocStock is a very strong advocate for a cleaner environment and a keen promoter of green initiatives. For example, the festival is off setting the carbon emissions by planting a tree for each car or campervan that turns up, solar powering the main and acoustic stages and using bio-diesel generators throughout the weekend. The car-share scheme is encouraged.
