HUGE CAMPSITE Beautiful setting FREE camping for tents Family/Quiet zones Up to 5 nights camping

In the last warm days at the end of every summer, a unique tribe of music lovers embarks on an epic pilgrimage towards the heart of Walesby Forest. They come from all walks of life, a colourful mix of groups and ages, but whether they’re rolling up in sleek motorhomes, rusty relics, quirky caravans, or well-worn tents, they’re all here for the same thing… the Big‑Fake buzz!

This isn't just any buzz; it's a soul-stirring, mind-expanding vibe of higher energy! Fuelled by delicious tunes from rock's biggest and brightest bands, it’s wrapped in an atmosphere of warmth and camaraderie you just won't find anywhere else. Once you’re part of it, you become the best version of yourself – you’ll be hooked!

And who are these legendary folks? They're our ever-growing “fake-fest-fam,” of course! They are the beating heart of the Big Fake Festival. When they’re all together, singing along, sharing laughs, and living in the moment under the open sky, they create the magic and memories that make this festival an unforgettable experience. They are the kindest, most joyous people you’ll ever meet.

And guess what? New members are always welcome! But don’t hang around – the fam loves to snap up tickets early because it’s just too special to miss!

Come join us. We can't wait to rock wiv ya! ❤️🤘
