Organiser Geoff Oakes explains the festival's ethos, "The starting point for everything at Wild in the Country is the music and weve gone to great lengths to programme a diverse array of acts in a credible and coherent line-up. Of equal importance is the feeling of the most fun you can have in the English countryside. Inside the tents we have created as close to a club experience as is possible, with impeccable sound, stunning décor and lengthy sets from the headliners. Outside is where the personality of the festival really shines through. Discovery is a huge part of the festival experience and we've injected a lot of fun and colour into Wild in the Country this year."
Wild in the Country will have six marquee arenas and an outdoor main stage which will all play host to the most exciting and diverse collection of electronic artistes. As well as music revellers can enjoy an Anglo-centric Victorian fun fair; an enchanted wood; a wide variety of food stalls; performance artistes; the Twisted Tea Room and much more.
Tickets are priced at £54. To buy tickets click here.
