A family music and food festival on Alex James' farm in the Cotswolds over the August bank holiday, with chefs, street food and camping.

Big Feastival is held over the August bank holiday on Alex James' farm at Kingham, in the Oxfordshire Cotswolds. It mixes big-name bands with food: kitchen stages with well-known and Michelin-starred chefs, hands-on cookery sessions, award-winning street food and special dining experiences.

There is comedy, live podcasts, creative workshops and lots for children, and camping tickets are available, with campsite access from the Thursday.

Kingham station, about 90 minutes from London Paddington, is a three-minute walk from the festival site, and there is a free shuttle bus to the campsites.
