The Cursus Cider & Music Festival

The Cursus Cider and Music Festival basically does what it says on the tin. There will be music, cider (and plenty of other choice drinks) and people having fun in a big field on the beautiful Cranborne Chase in Dorset. Our capacity is just 400 people so you are guaranteed a relaxed and friendly welcome.

For a small festival, we offer an impressive line-up of original live music. Our Saturday night headliners are the incredible Skinny Lister who is taking time out of European and US tours to play a rare small UK festival! They'll be joined by festival favourite Gaz Brookfield (full band show), Australian folk-punks The Rumjacks, Dublin gypsy-folkers The Eskies and a whole lot more! You'll also catch some of the best bands from the Dorset area, in the form of Skimmity Hitchers, Black Water County, The Intercepteurs and The Surfin' Birds.

It's all about making new friends, meeting old ones and forgetting about the boring things in life. This is made easier with our communal campfire and well-stocked cider bar offering pints from just £3.50.

We welcome families, well-behaved dogs, tent campers and live-in vehicles. No glass, fires or BBQs however as this is a working farm field.

Adult weekend tickets start at just £55 with Under 18s just £10 and Under 5's just £1!!

Day tickets also available in limited number, including 1 night's tent camping.

Come and join the friendliest small festival on the circuit, and make it a bank holiday to remember!!!
