Strawberry Fair has become an integral part of the festival calendar over the last 30 years, and is set on a lovely site (strictly no camping though!) by the river in the centre of Cambridge.

Expect around five stages hosting local and festival-circuit bands. As well as the spectacle of the colourful procession through Cambridge city centre which opens the event, there is plenty of entertainment with free face-painting and circus skills sessions for kids, and for adults, as well as live music, a green area with performers and informers from a variety of green perspectives, fantastic markets with goods from all over the world, and of course, the obligatory beer tents with AUTHENTIC LOCAL ALE.

There's no parking at the site - there are car parks nearby (5 to 10 minutes walk) but they can be expensive (£2-ish an hour during the day).
