Lost Village

Lost Village is a four-day festival that feels like stepping into a secret enchanted world. From 27 to 30 August 2026 in rural Lincolnshire (postcode LN6 9QG), the event transforms an abandoned village in the woods into an imaginative playground of music, art and discovery. Wander along winding forest paths to find hidden stages pulsing with music, glowing art installations nestled in the branches, and surprise performances around every corner. The whole site feels otherworldly, as if the forest itself has come alive with lights and magic. It’s a break from the ordinary, an immersive escape where every turn brings a new delight.

Music and creativity drive Lost Village’s spirit. Across multiple stages, attendees hear everything from cutting-edge electronic DJs and dance music to live bands and chill-out acoustic sets. The lineup intentionally blurs boundaries between genres: one moment you might be grooving to techno under a canopy of stars at a main stage, the next discovering an indie band playing inside an old church or even the cockpit of a grounded airplane. Immersive theatre shows and interactive artworks are woven through the village, and there’s often a comedy tent for late-night laughs. Workshops, creative activities and wellness sessions (from yoga to sound therapy) give you chances to try something new or simply relax. With so much variety packed into four days, every visitor finds their own special adventure.

Food and drink are central to the Lost Village experience. The festival is known for world-class dining and quirky bars. You might join a grand communal banquet prepared by top chefs at a long woodland table, or grab international street food from tree-lined market stalls. Hidden cocktail bars light up the woods, where you can sip a craft drink by lantern light or share a round beside a bonfire. Even the little details are taken care of: clean toilets, hot showers and phone charging stations make camping comfortable. Visitors can bring a tent to the main campsite or upgrade to pre-pitched camping and luxury glamping with real beds and power. Sleeping under the stars in Lost Village is an adventure of its own, and friendly faces around every firepit make it easy to make friends and swap stories late into the night.

Lost Village isn’t all go-go-go; there are also calm corners to recharge. The tucked-away Energy Garden by the lake invites you to unwind in wood-fired hot tubs and Finnish saunas, join yoga at sunrise, or enjoy sound and massage therapies in the forest. It’s an oasis of calm when you need a break from the party. This blend of high-energy fun and peaceful moments makes Lost Village feel truly special. Many say it’s a fairy-tale escape in the woods, a place to really lose yourself in music, creativity and nature. Whether you come to dance, discover, or simply relax under the stars, Lost Village offers an immersive, magical experience you won’t forget.
