A weekend in a field, co-created.

co-created.

Mooncow Fest is a communal festival (gathering?) of around 80–150 friends, friends-of-friends, and lovely strangers — pitched on a working farm in East Sussex. There are no headliners, no wristbands, no sponsors. Just people, fields, fire, music, food cooked together, and the occasional cow.

The event is co-created by the participants. Bring yourself, bring your ideas, your music, and anything you'd like to share — a workshop, a talk, a DJ set, food, anything!

We've been doing this since 2020. Each year is a little different. The shape comes from the people who show up.

Who's playing?
TBD.

Mooncow doesn't book headliners — the lineup comes from whoever brings their decks, their tracks, or their voice. The 2026 schedule is still being written. Want to play? Mention it on the sign-up form and we'll get you a slot.

In the meantime, here's a taste of last year's sets — straight from the herd:

~ the land ~

Rolling hills,
a quiet farm,
big skies.

We pitch up at Great Danegate Farm, near Eridge Green in East Sussex — about an hour by train from London Bridge to Tunbridge Wells, then a short hop. There's space to camp, a kitchen tent, a fire, a dance tent, and a lot of green.

Getting there by car, public transport, or carpool. We'll coordinate lifts in the run-up — let us know on the sign-up form if you'd like a seat, or have one to offer.

~ how it's funded ~

Three cow tiers.
Pick what fits.

Mooncow runs on what people pitch in. We don't profit — fees cover the land, food, equipment, and the bits and pieces that make a field into a festival. Choose the tier that sits right with your budget.
