Blissfields is an intimate festival for all the family in the heart of the Hampshire countryside. This is a festival for people who want something as far removed from the big commercial festivals as you can get! There will be quality food and beer (including real ales) on sale at very reasonable prices, plenty of fantastic hand-picked food stalls, craft stalls, great workshops for you and the kids, relaxing areas and quirky cafes.

Blissfields is as much about the merrymaking as it is the music, expect a carnival-like atmosphere with juggling, beatbox and DJ workshops, Yallah belly dancers, performances from Panic Circus, story telling and for the first time ever at Blissfields, a mass birthday party for anybody celebrating their day while at the festival.
