Chilled in a Field returns For 2018

Festival Crowd Header

Chilled in a Field Festival is a feel good modern family-friendly festival. Having kids doesn’t mean you have to miss out on amazing live music and DJs until late into the night

Bring them to the party with you! Your friends without kids will love it too.

Grown from the '90's London party scene, Chilled in a Field is a small, independent festival for grown-up party people and their fabulous kids – people just like you!

Free activities for children and adults are available all day; bands, musicians, artists, science, theatre, performances and, of course, awesome dance music from some of the UK's top independent labels mean you'll have great time with no need to keep finding extra cash. Relax and enjoy a fairly priced real ale festival bar with local beers and ciders, plus mountains of delicious street food to suit all tastes.

With such great value for money you'll have money to treat yourself - you deserve it! Guests can indulge in the festival spa with a spot of pampering or a dip in the woodfired hot tub and sauna while your kids play safely or ride the mini steam train around the festival site.

Take in the glorious surroundings of the Bentley Estate in Sussex and soak up a beautiful weekend of fun, friends and freedom. We guarantee you'll be 100% chilled.

Chilled in a Field is a not-for-profit, environmentally conscious social gathering, where adults and children can make new friends, discover new experiences and enjoy nature, as well as having a whole lot of silly fun!

Bring friends, bring children, and see for yourself why our award winning, small but perfectly formed festival has consistently received nothing but fantastic 5* reviews.
