    The Arts & Expression theme for next year's The Secret Garden Party 2012 has been announced as "Standing On Ceremony".

    around the festival site (5)
    In 2012 the Arts & Expression theme comes as the festival celebrates its 10th Birthday, and uses that starting point to explore those ceremonies, rituals, initiations, anniversaries and carnivals that bind us together, that emphasize matter over mind, that emphasise our true gifts as humans: social existence.

    Next year also offers inspirational themes including the Olympics, the phenomena of the 2012 prophecies, the arrival of the seventh billion human, and our social history is full of 'mass collective moments' and ceremonial occasions that have bound men together across the ages, that have reinforced and reinvented that most remarkable of our achievements: society.

    Festival goers are asked to join in with anniversaries, ceremonies, and initiations. Last year saw a record number of festival goers interacting with on site installations, artworks, performances and absurd happenings. There were over 50 art installations, over 30 participatory action camps, and countless performances, all woven between the 17 arenas & stages showcasing over 350 bands across 4 days.

    There are no acts confirmed yet for The Secret Garden Party 2012 held from Thursday 19th to Sunday 22nd July 2012.

    The Secret Garden Party held at Mill Hill Field, Abbots Ripton, in Huntingdon, Cambridgeshire is a garden-party-gone-crazy. As well as music there's loads of activities for kids and adults alike, and it is more of a party experience than a live music festival.
