With just 63 days to go before we throw open the farm gates, Harvest HQ is a hive of activity. As we continue to build what promises to be a very memorable weekend we thought we would let you know more about what to expect from our lipsmacking line up - we promise that there will be a flavour to satisfy everyone's taste! You can buy your tickets here 

We are hugely honoured to confirm a collaboration with Teenage Cancer Trust for this year’s festival. Together we will be announcing a very special guest headline band on 16th July who are sure to rock your socks off. Harvest will be their only festival appearance of the year and it’s all in aid of Teenage Cancer Trust. We will also be welcoming Patrice de Villiers and her eagerly anticipated book ‘Love Music Love Food’ with all proceeds going to the charity.

For those who like their creature comforts we have some very special additions to boutique camping in the form of Toast Luxury Belle Tents. Our friends at Toast will be literally pimping a handful of belle tents – imagine a night cap whilst being wrapped in vintage Welsh blankets, pull on a pair of PJs and settle down for the night in soft cotton bed linen then wake up in the morning to the warmth of a sheepskin rug underfoot. If this takes your fancy you can book into a luxury Toast Belle Tent here.

Keeping the children entertained all weekend is just as important to us as providing us bigger kids with delicious dishes and a stellar music line up so we thought we would let you know more about our full to the brim children’s area.

Setting the kids up early in life with cookery skills can only be a good thing, think about the years of breakfast in bed to come. With this in mind we have teamed up with the lovely people over at Kiddy Cook who will be running interactive workshops throughout the weekend. Meanwhile Slow Food will be popping down with The Taste Adventure taking willing participants on a sensory journey through five interactive zones.

We’ll also be joined by The Bushcraft Company who will be on hand to offer back to basics experiences all based around using our natural surroundings. Little ones can try their hand at traditional wilderness survival skills including cookery and navigation through outdoor learning. If you or your family have ever fancied writing your own song, having it recorded or just having a jam with a new instrument then why not check out The Witchwood School of Rock! A talented team of musicians will be running workshops throughout the weekend giving wannabe rockers of all ages the chance to display their musical talents.

And last but by no means least the lovely team at Canopy & Stars would like to give one of you lucky people the chance to win a stay at one of their luxury camping locations. Canopy & Stars is a wonderful place to find beautiful and quirky glamping treats, from luxury yurts and tree houses to Gypsy wagons and more. Take a peek here for your chance to win.

This is just a little taster to keep you all going for now but keep a look out for our very special announcement in the coming fortnight. Team Harvest x
