Why Families Love Elderflower Fields
Elderflower Fields returns for a special 15th anniversary celebration, encouraging families to reconnect with the natural environment and disconnect from tech. Well-known as the ideal first festival for families, this independent, award-winning weekend has grown organically into a much-loved celebration of play, discovery, and community.
Over the past 15 years, thousands of families have made their first festival memories at Elderflower Fields. Children who once raced through the woods now return, helping to put on the show! Adults who first brought excited toddlers now volunteer alongside their teenagers, spending precious family time together. This sense of continuity and connection makes Elderflower Fields more than a festival. It is a community that welcomes old friends and new families to unplug and unwind in this unique wild playground each late May bank holiday weekend.
The festival combines live performance, creative workshops, sports, woodland activities and non-stop adventure. Guests can explore and discover in a safe and spacious setting, with facilities designed to make festival life easy with kids. Tickets for under-fours are completely free, helping young families take their first steps into festival life.
Food and drink are a highlight, with the finest local suppliers serving Sussex ales, artisan coffee, and freshly
prepared delights to suit all tastes, diets and ages. Stages host festival favourites alongside exciting new live
performances and DJs, whilst the forest itself provides the perfect backdrop for activities and games to discover through the Lazy Glades, Urban Woods and Tumbledown Meadows.
Festival Dates: 22 to 25 May 2025
Location: Pippingford Park, Sussex

More about Elderflower Fields
Elderflower Fields was born in 2012 out of a desire to create a new festival designed especially for families and kids. In our first year we really didn’t know what to expect. Planning a party for a few hundred friends, our plans snowballed, and before we knew it, we had sold over a thousand tickets. The sun shone, kids ran free, and we danced in the beautiful surroundings of the Bentley estate.
It was so popular we did it again in 2013 and this time twice as many people came – largely encouraged through word of mouth from the previous year’s customers. We had more kids’ activities, more music and more delicious local food & drink.
In 2014 we moved to a new venue, Pippingford Park. It’s beautiful, hilly and wild, and it has become a great home to us over the years.
We intentionally keep Elderflower Fields small – it’s part of what makes it such a safe and special weekend for families. What we strive to increase each year is the quantity and quality of the activities and performances, so that there’s always something new and exciting for guests.
