Festival Information
North West
Overview
Moovin Festival is an adults only (18+), independent, boutique music event. The festival showcases a diverse range of genres, including DnB, reggae, house, soul, and funk, featuring both emerging artists and established acts. Despite hosting big-name performers, Moovin intentionally maintains a limited capacity to foster an intimate atmosphere across its six stages. The event offers more than just music, with activities such as yoga, gong baths, and fire shows. Moovin's commitment to its counter-cultural feel and personal vibe has made it a standout in the UK festival scene.

Accessibility
Moovin Festival is committed to making the event accessible to all attendees, including those with additional needs. While specific accessibility details are limited, the festival organisers encourage registered blue badge holders and anyone with accessibility requirements to contact them directly at access@moovin-festival.com. They aim to accommodate individual needs and provide easy access to the site. However, due to limited space and the need for advance planning, it's crucial to submit accessibility requests at least 5 weeks before the festival, early communication is essential to make necessary arrangements.
