Wood Festival 2027

About Wood Festival

Wood began at Braziers Park in 2008 as a sustainable, family-friendly event. Wood Festival 2027 runs 21–23 May at Braziers Park Campground, near Wallingford, Oxfordshire, with a music bill rooted in folk, Americana, country, alt-folk and alt-indie rock. Capacity is 500 a day.

The programme reaches beyond the stages, with more than 50 free workshops, talks and activities. It stays small.

Lineup and Programme

The bill leans into roots music and folk, with Americana, country and alt-indie edges. Announced acts include The Bros. Landreth, Police Dog Hogan, SupaLung, Memorial, Ruth Lyon, Nick Cope and Wild Boor Ideas.

Music runs across the Wood Stage, Treebadour Tent and Kindling Tent. Away from the stages, the 2027 programme has more than 50 free workshops, talks and activities split between the Workshop Village, Kids' Tent, the Den and Kindling.

Who Is It For?

Wood is set up for an all-ages crowd rather than a late-night-only audience. Families are a clear part of the design, with kids' tent activities and teen-area sessions in The Den.

Under-18s need a paying adult with them, and under-16s must be supervised by a parent or guardian at all times. Ages 13–17 need a Teen ticket; ages 12 and under need a Child ticket; under-2s need a free ticket.

The Venue and Site

Braziers Park Camp Field puts Wood on a green-field site at Ipsden, near Wallingford. The arena is built around the Wood Stage, Treebadour Tent and Kindling Tent.

Camping is included with weekend tickets for three nights. Camper vans, live-in vehicles and Tent Boxes need a separate ticket, while towed caravans are not allowed.

The site uses a solar-powered wooden stage, wood-fired showers and composting loos with a view. Free drinking-water points, mains-fed washing sinks, Festival HQ and 24-hour first aid sit alongside food stalls and a bar, with accessible parking, camping and toilets also in place.
