Wilderness Festival announced first names for 2018

Welcome to a cascade of colour, sound, and art that is Wilderness Festival, which this year takes place across Thursday 2nd – Sunday 5th August in Cornbury Park, Oxfordshire.

The Oxfordshire woodland becomes home to one of the most immersive and entertaining spectacles of the summer, as we embark on a journey of splendour, joy, and mystery. Wilderness festival is exactly what we all desire – an escape from normality and a delve into the weird and wonderful.

‘To inspire, challenge and enrich your lives. Collectors and creatives, we curate with an open heart and an ambitious mind.’

What to expect.

By day this is quite a posh affair with cricket, bubbles and a quirky take on a British afternoon on the lawn. By night things get a more party orientated –  an absolute mad-house circus act of fancy dress, funk, disco and general debauchery.

Where will our dancing shoes be taking us?

The Data Transmission crew will be bouncing all over but for the most part, we’ll set up camp in The Valley – the after-hours hub for all things electronic.
