More info

The Green Gathering is a festival and a community; an immersive, interactive showcase of skill sharing, creative solutions and off grid living... all powered by wind, sun, people and passion.

It's a festival beyond hedonism for people who love the earth enough to celebrate and save it; a place to party - then wake up and put the world to rights!

With an authentically uncommercial, family friendly and transformative experience, the festival aims to turn people on to community building and low impact solutions. It's about providing food, energy, health and shelter without degrading the planet. It's about future families.

It's award-winning clean, green and 100% of the electric used on site is renewably-sourced.

Workshops and activities

Workshops in traditional crafts compete for attention with intimate live music venues, permaculture gardening, radical cinema, campaign stalls, activist training, wood-fired saunas and campfire sessions.

The Green Gathering provides a wide range of children's activities for kids of all ages, from toddlers to teens.

Growing in popularity each year, the Raconteurs' Delight Stage in the heart of the festival features spoken word, comedy, cabaret, circus, song and jazz by night; workshops in dance, creative writing, theatre, songwriting, clowning and more by day.

The Green Gathering's West Country cider and ale bars and Hedgerow Cocktail Bar provide tipples to whet the whistle at very reasonable prices, while the ethical markets and hearty, wholesome food stalls are great for browsing and grazing...

Ethos

The Green Gathering has a wide ranging, continually evolving Sustainability Policy covering power, land and resource use, travel, trading and social impact.

The festival aims to be inclusive, incorporating a well-regarded Assisted Access team and LGBTIQ space.

The festival is commissioned by, and raises funds for, the Green Gathering charity (no. 1156593), which promotes sustainability via hands-on education and the arts.
