Kids' Fest

Glastonbury for kids is how its organisers are billing this three-day festival in Essex, back for a secnd year in 2014. On the main stage, acts include a broad range that should ensure appeal across the age zones, from Rastamouse and Bob the Builder to a BMX stunt show and X-Factor finalist Sam Callahan. Alongside the main stage are a play area, inflatable village, big top circus (and have-a-go circus sessions), a vintage funfair, lots of participation activities and even a farmyard trail. Bet you don't get that at Glasto – or the Dad's disco area. It's aimed at families with kids of preschool and primary school age. Ticket price covers all acts and activities.
