As the highlight of the annual calendar for thousands of members, activists and supporters of the Green movement, Britain's largest and liveliest Green event returns, at a new site in the Mendip Hills. This festival offers many of the greener highlights that you might find at Glastonbury or Womad, with the emphasis on a healthy family-friendly atmosphere.
This year, alcohol and tobacco will not be available to buy on site.
It is hoped that the festival will be 'a celebration of our natural world and our place within it... a place for enjoyment, learning and fun'.
Music, in at least three renewably-powered venues, is eclectic. Rather than concentrating on big-name bands, you can enjoy highly-rated and often well-known but possibly less commercially-based musicians. We are hoping for more details to be here soon. According to their website, Seize the Day, are one band who are defintely playing this year.
There are substantial safe spaces for healing, holistic health workshops and therapies; poetry, comedy, cabaret, and burlesque dance in the theatre areas; singing, dance, drumming and drama workshops; a Green Futures Forum; Green Markets and Crafts area; sustainable homes and permaculture areas; vegetarian food only - and mostly organic; kids areas for all ages; the first solar powered wireless internet cafe; the bike-powered Groovy Moovie tent; the Amsterdam Balloon Company; and Rinky-Dink, a mobile cycle-powered sound system.
A special camping area is to be available for those with mobility disabilities.
Advance tickets are now available.
