Lunar Festival 2016 Overview

The Lunar Festival is an event brought to you by the same production team behind Moseley Folk Festival & Mostly Jazz, Funk & Soul Festivals. This intimate festival will take place at the beautiful setting of the Umberslade Estate in Tanworth In Arden in June.

Lunar Festival returns again this summer as one of the UK's most enchanting odysseys, set in a beautiful region of verdant countryside only 20 minutes away from Birmingham. A long tree-lined avenue, almost like a vaulted tunnel, is the decompression point from reality into somewhere sublime just on its periphery, which is also the birthplace of the iconic Nick Drake.

It's an intimate adventure with a big-heart, an amazing experiences for all ages which feels hidden away from the world. There's a dreamy mix of escapism and discovery, an eccentric blend of vibrant sounds and colour sound-tracked by a cast of live artists and DJs picked purely for their dedication to their craft. Each year witnesses a stellar line-up performing in the intimate spaces of Lunar; here there are no fillers, only real talent gracing the stages and decks across a weekend which seeks to inspire at every moment. Lunar is musically diverse with something for all the family, which includes arts, crafts, activities and games and delicious artisan food and drink from across the region, plus a range of camping and accommodation options.

The scale and depth of the Lunar Festival offering is simply staggering. Our FFA Reviewers caught a little of the magic from last year's excellent bash - give it a read to capture just some of the wonders that Lunar Festival has to offer:

Here's the Lunar Festival 2015 Review

“One day Lunar Festival will be massive – if not in size then surely in reputation… Lunar is an absolutely excellent little festie. Indeed, as relatively seasoned reviewers, we would rate Lunar as one of the most imaginative and creative events for its size that we've ever had the pleasure to attend.”
