Nowadaze Festival: the brand new two day camping music and art festival
Nowadaze Festival is the brand new two (and a half) day music and art event just outside of Bristol.
Previously a friends-only event, the festival went public in 2023 and has grown into a community driven, vibe filled, brand new organisation.
Born out of a need for a local camping festival in the city (or just outside it), the event took place at Oxwick Farm in Yate and headliners included Frazer Ray and In:Most DJs.
is needed now More than ever
Nowadaze was formed by a small group of friends from Bristol who have over five years of experience of putting on events under the Digestive Chamber record label.

The farm has a 500 people capacity and allowed the team to erect two stages alongside space for camping, local food vendors, bars and an art market which spotlighted local vendors and held workshops for attendees.
Returning for their sophomore event, on July 19 – 21, the team hope to keep growing and growing, with the 2024 edition including an extra stage for even more live music.
Hoping to create a space for new and upcoming artists, the team have also opened up an application process for 2024 to discover and promote grassroots artists.

The festival received 250 applicants and are still in the process of finaling the lineup, which is expected early next year.
The small, intimate festival promises to showcases fresh artists, working with local breweries and food vendors and rising stars in the art world.
