The Hidden Valley festival site is situated around a ramshackle Tudor farmhouse which sits on the side of the Valley in the centre of the festival site. It’s nestled against The Garden Stage, which hosts an array of eclectic bounce-inducing artists. The Orchard boasts the headline names and the cream of the upcoming crop, as well as the theatrical crowd-pleasers, and the Bandstand brings forth bands from indie-pop, alt/punk to folk-rock.

The converted cowsheds include the Cubicles, sub-thumping drum ‘n’ bass, to be found aside the Bullpen, an incubator for great promoters delivering bass-heavy beats. Elephant’s Grave hosts reggae by day, house by night, in a secluded lake-side shelter, and The Coppice’s luminous sounds from veterans of psytrance Tribe of Frog flowing through the trees in the valley.

Alternatives and rebels reside in The Altered State – another world full of live performance, comedy, arts workshops, spoken word, games and after-dark, experimental cabaret, with a splash of late-night disco. And beyond the powers of Yeleni’s healing area lies the Cabinet of Lost Secrets, an original slice of weirdness for the brave and bold.
