Early bird tickets are now on sale for The Green Gathering held from Thursday 30th July until Sunday 2nd August 2015 and returning for a fifth year to Piercefield Park of Chepstow, in Monmouthshire offering up and coming bands as well as old festival favourites.

There are no acts confirmed yet for 2015. Live music and DJs are just one aspect of this, off grid festival.

Landscaped grounds high above the Wye Valley offer views of the Severn estuary and bridges; the ruins of neoclassical Piercefield House provide an atmospheric backdrop; and the rolling parkland of the site, encircled by woods, has ample space for camping.

The Green Gathering promotes and platforms sustainable lifestyles through combining education with entertainment.

GG is a place to relax, make friends and listen to music - but it's also so much more than that. It's a community and an education. It's about providing food, energy, health and shelter without degrading the planet. It's about future families.

Early bird tickets are priced at £70 (plus £5 booking fee plus vehicle passes).

Held in 'Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty', the event also offers a chance to learn traditional skills in the Craft area and to explore pathways to green futures with Permaculture and Transition groups. Veteran activists will be on hand to share information and tactics in the Campaigns field, while in the Speakers' Forum, experts and mavericks present a huge range of topics for debate.

The festival is entirely off-grid; all stages are 100% powered by wind, sun and people. Pioneers in alternative technologies are on hand to teach what they know and a trip to the Greensweep recycling depot is an education in it's own right!

The Green Gathering's West Country cider and ale bars 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...
