Calling all teens: go “SOMEWHERE,” this summer at Green Man, and find that the summer holidays just got a whole lot less boring when you get to our new action-packed area especially for you!

'Somewhere’ is an exclusive multimedia adventure zone open until 10pm every night.

From free-running to filmmaking and fashion fun, it’s the perfect place to run wild and make some noise at the UK’s friendliest festival. So get ready to meet new mates, start a band, fall in love…maybe even change the world, right?

And remember our much younger Green Man friends have their own "Little Folk," area as well which will be packed with lots of engaging fun treats just for 12 and unders.

Here’s a taster of what to expect if you head to ‘Somewhere’ this summer…

Parkour & Free-running Workshops – defy gravity with Hollywood stunt specialists 3RUN, the world’s leading professional acrobatic movement performance athletes.

FotoDome Media Tent –go behind the scenes to make a festival documentary and magazine with the Green Man press gang, or have a go at photography or printmaking.

Desperate Men – mischievous and warm-hearted street theatre, acrobatics, acting and general tomfoolery with the groundbreaking outdoor performance specialists.

Big Screen Gaming – test your reflexes and take on the competition as your favourite games come to life as never before with Xbox/PS2 and Wii gaming on huge screens.

Rock Club - even more keyboards, basses, violins, electric guitars and drum kits than usual with a dedicated stage and PA system to live out your rock star dreams!


Steam Punk Costume Workshop – Sci-fi meets Victoriana with these fun workshops, followed by a special fashion show where you can see your creations on the catwalk.

Noisy Toys – spectacular hands-on interactive sound installations, performance workshops and unique musical instruments that you have never encountered before.

PLUS! A climbing wall, MP3 chill out zone, circus skills workshops, beat boxing, DJ mix desks, drama, singing, body painting and host of traditional games including ping pong, indoor cricket, and an outdoor football arena!
