Location
Green Gathering Festival takes place at: Piercefield Park, Chepstow, Monmouthshire, NP16 6EH, just outside Chepstow on the Welsh border.
The festival shares entry gates and parking with Chepstow Racecourse but takes place in Piercefield Park — a hillside site with sweeping views of the Severn Estuary and Wye Valley.
Chepstow is an accessible town with a train station and is located just off the M4, around 18 miles from Bristol. The festival site lies within an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty and includes open parkland, woodland, and the atmospheric ruins of Piercefield House.
The land is also home to the festival’s evolving Grove of native trees, planted by the Green Gathering community as part of its long-term commitment to regeneration, biodiversity, and ceremonial space.
