Honestly, we are completely blown away, Basecampers 🥹 You’ve loved Mendip Mini Fests so much that we’ve added an EXTRA DATE! 🎉

To everyone who has booked, shared, supported us, and embraced our new Mini Fest weekends - thank you. You’ve helped turn a little idea into something truly special ✨🫶

Seeing so many of you dancing, laughing, playing, and making memories together has been incredible. This is exactly why we created Mendip Mini Fests!

We wanted to build a festival experience where the whole family feels included. Where the grown-ups have just as much fun as the kids. Where you can enjoy all the excitement, music, and magic of a festival without the huge ticket prices, overwhelming crowds, or festival chaos.

If you’ve yet to experience the magic of Mendip Mini Fest, join us for our FINAL WEEKEND and help us end the summer with one epic party! 🎉
