“Farmfestival started as a festival for friends, and has stayed that way 9 years on. We're a festival that doesn't believe in media hype or inflated prices. We believe in a genre defying selection of alternative music, amazing charities, local produce, and good times set to the backdrop of a beautiful Somerset vista. Supporting the UK's best emerging acts, underground legends & local gems.”
