ABOUT THE FESTIVAL
Elderflower Fields is a small, independent festival, created in 2012 by a small team of friends and set within the stunning private grounds and magical woodland of Pippingford Park in the Ashdown Forest – the perfect environment for kids and grown-ups to fully escape for the weekend.
Now entering its fifth year, Elderflower Fields builds upon the winning formula of a festival designed especially for families with children. It’s an exciting and unique family experience that opens children and their parents’ minds to new opportunities in sport, music, the arts, the environment and food in the great outdoors.
MUSIC AND PERFORMANCE
Elderflower prides itself on its focus on up and coming new bands and performers and providing opportunity for young people to engage in and be inspired by music.
