Shindig Festival

South West

Overview

Shindig is an independent, family-friendly festival combining live music, DJs, and performance across a multi-day camping weekend. Set in the Wiltshire countryside, the festival brings together a broad mix of artists and audiences in an environment that is social, relaxed, and welcoming.

Music sits alongside circus, cabaret, workshops, crafts, and wellness activities, with programming designed to be accessible across ages. Rather than focusing on headline acts alone, Shindig places equal value on shared experiences, movement between spaces, and time spent exploring the site.

With its emphasis on community, creativity, and participation, Shindig appeals to families and festival-goers looking for a balanced event that blends music, performance, and camping without the scale or intensity of large commercial festivals.
