The Green Gathering 2016

Thursday 4th to Sunday 7th August 2016
Piercefield Park, Chepstow, Monmouthshire, NP16 6BE, Wales MAP
early bird £95 for a weekend ticket
Daily capacity: 5,000

The Ukrainians, Seize The Day, Edd Donovan And The Wandering Moles, The Pagan Love Cult, and Tetchi have been added ro the bill for The Green Gathering returning for a sixth year to Piercefield Park of Chepstow, in Monmouthshire and held from Thursday 4th until Sunday 7th August 2016.

These acts join the already announced 3 Daft Monkeys, Kangaroo Moon, Echo Town, Tess of the Circle, Neil Pike, Little Sparrow and The Electric Brains.

Live music and DJs are just one aspect of this, off grid festival. A Speakers' Forum provides a platform for key Green thinkers; the Brigadoon Stage hosts informal acoustic music sessions; and there's a spoken word arena for poets, comedians and raconteurs.

With the strapline 'beyond hedonism', The Green Gathering blends protest culture and environmental activism with wild music and wanton dancing in the best tradition of old-skool 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.
