Carfest 2023

Friday 25th to Sunday 27th August 2023
Laverstoke Park Farm, Overton, Hampshire, RG25 3DR, England MAP
Adult (aged 17+) weekend camping: £209/ £60 child
Daily capacity: 35,000

The brainchild of radio presenter Chris Evans, CarFest will be entering its 12th year next August, bigger and better than ever. The festival will take place from Friday 25th until Sunday 27th August 2022 at Laverstoke Park Farm in Hampshire.

Unfortunately, the sister event in the north at Bolesworth Castle in Cheshire, is NOT taking place this year due to increasing costs and sadly the festival's ticket donation to charity has reduced from 25% in 2018 to 15% in 2023. So, for those able to spare it, any loose change dropped into the collection tins will be even more appreciated.

Following last year’s success, CarFest 2023 will again host a whopping seven magical festivals in one: StarFest, FoodFest, SpaFest, RetroFest, KidsFest, AdventureFest, and of course, CarFest!

There’ll be talented music acts taking to the main stage, too - some of the big stars confirmed for 2023 include The Feeling, Village People, BoyzLife, Rick Parfitt Jnr, Texas, The Bootleg Beatles and The Dolly Parton Experience – with more names to be announced in the coming months.

To see who has been confirmed so far, please view the line-up page.

As well as music, the festival features a display and sprint courses of classic and new cars.
