Elderflower Fields is known to be one of the best family festivals out there. Taking place over the May Bank holiday weekend for many this event signifies the start of festival season, heck the start of summer! I attended Elderflower Fields for only my second time this year, bringing my son, his friend and her Mum along for the ride. As the event is so local to us (just a 10 minute drive from home) we’ve just visited for the day previously. This year we were going all in, camping from the Friday through to the Monday. So just what makes the Elderflower Fields Festival so fabulous? 1.The Location The festival takes place in Pippingford Park in the heart of the Ashdown Forest. Stages and activities are dotted throughout wooded areas with views across rolling landscapes. Children love the natural play spaces including hidden streams and grassy meadows. 2.The Activities Whatever floats your boat there is so much going over the weekend – from yoga to tree climbing; dance workshops to football. It pays to be organised and book at few things ahead but if, like me you leave everything to the last minute that works too. Some of the highlights for us were a creative art workshop, family pub quiz, pond dipping, Woodland Tribe adventure play, Parkour and a hands on creepy crawly experience. Read more about activities here. 3.The Music No festival is complete without a non-stop, all-singing, all-dancing line-up. Elderflower Fields is no different. From intimate acoustic sets to lively big band performances, the festival showcases an eclectic mix of talented musicians. We loved the chaos of the Taylor Swift karaoke, The Carnival Collective and Raz & Alfa whilst Son Guarachando provided the perfect chilled soundtrack to the Sunday afternoon. 4. The Food From the moment we arrived we were planning the logistics of sampling all the delicious food on sale. The main festival arena was surrounded by sumptuous smells making it impossible to stick to the Pot Noodles we’d packed! In the end we opted for several visits to the Waffle on a Stick stand; the most delicious Asian food from Thai Angle; classic pizza delights from the Pizza Wagon and a few visits to Juice Up for smoothies. 5. New Sports What better time to try a new sporting activity than when surrounded by friends in a wide open space. Elderflower offers a range of sporting activities as well as arts, crafts and music. This year saw opportunities to have a go at yoga, tree climbing kayaking and parkour (as well as much more). We absolutely loved playing disc golf which is a cross between Frisbee and golf – new to us but enjoyed by all! 6. Art Trail Get lost in the art trail which weaves in and out of the magical woodlands areas running through the heart of the festival. Created by Schools Without Walls this unique and colourful art trail combines the talents of a number of local schools. A true masterpiece. 7. Silent Disco The best way to dance in the woods, surely? Hush Beats provide the playlist for the highlight of every evening – the silent disco. Put your head phones on, grab your friends, get ready to lip synch and dance like nobody’s watching! 8. Camping With a mix of wild camping, family camping, glamping and camping with vehicles you’ve can tailor make your camping experience at Elderflower Fields. We chose to camp in one of the general camping fields fairly close to the car park (less distance to cover with heavy kit!) As though being at festival isn’t enough, camping here on the Ashdown Forest is a joy in itself. Nothing beats an evening sunset with Pooh country as a backdrop and the buzz live music… 9. The woods at night Pippingford really comes to life at night time with magical light displays illuminating the trees, nature walks highlighting nocturnal wild life and star gazing galore. 10. Short drive home Best thing is that all of this takes place less than a 10 minute drive from Uckfield! You can even pop home for a shower if you want.. or is that cheating? Tickets for Elderflower Fields 2026 are on sale now.
