Welcome to the Green Gathering!
Running from 1st - 4th August 2013, the Green Gathering returns to its lovely site near Chepstow for another year in the landscaped grounds of Piercefield Park bordered by the mighty river Wye. With the imposing ruin of Piercefield House as a backdrop and stunning views of the Severn bridges and estuary, some have said it is the most beautiful festival site in the country.
At the Green Gathering, you can rediscover ancient skills in our Crafts area and explore pathways to future sustainability with Permaculture and Transition. Talk with key speakers from the Green movement and engage in lively debate at the Green Forum venue; inform yourselves about current issues and causes with groups in the Campaigns area.
And of course, there is a lot of fun to be had! The Green Gathering has always provided a excellent Kids' area and we are one of the very few events to offer free entry to the under 11's. Many families get their first taste of a greener lifestyle with us - one of the joys of organising the Green Gathering is seeing children running around with new friends in open fields!
Renewable Energy
As pioneers of solar powered stages, our entertainment is run entirely on renewable energy. We provide many small venues rather than loud, dominating arena stages. Ambient festival cafés host many acclaimed bands and musicians, and if you're in the right place at the right time...... the occasional unscheduled performance by one of our mystery guests!
