ALSO: The UK’s most inspirational summer festival combining ideas, music, comedy and wellness alongside adventures in food and nature, returns to Park Farm, Compton Verney, Warwickshire from 10th-12th July 2026 and you could be there, too!
We have two family (or couple’s tickets) to give away to allow you to enjoy everything the ALSO festival has to offer. The ideas programme is truly inspired: the Turner Prize-winner Grayson Perry has just been announced; bestselling author Sathnam Sanghera brings his brilliantly original new book; writer and presenter Claudia Hammond shares the psychological toolkit for anyone suffering overwhelm; tech commentator Jamie Bartlett provides guidance on how to talk to AI. Music-wise, there’s PVA, Afriquoi, Chris Coull, Purdy Smith and Tribo, alongside comedians including Mark Thomas, Esther Manito and Marcel Lucont’s Cabaret Fantastique.
There’s a generous helping of quality food and drink, with long-table dining from Aram by Imad, a Woodland Lunch with River Cottage, and a themed Saturday Night Feast of Fortunes with Georgia Hearn. Plus a cookbook tasting demo from Petty Elliot, Curious Cheese Pairings with Emma Young, Venetian cocktail tasting and a fabulously fun Bingo Brunch.
Wellness partners Numinity bring a curated programme of transformative experiences including a Manifestation Lab, Fortuitous Breathwork, Rage Release and Ecstatic Dance. From the daily Run Club, to TrAiLdAnCe with Stornoway’s Oli Steadman to exploring the stunning site with Outdoor Adventure Girls, enjoying a literary walk with Ella Berthoud or joining a guided foraging walk, there are plenty of ways to reset and reconnect.
Always experiential, ALSO’s packed with creative workshops including Sara Cant’s Foraged Fascinators and Summer Wreaths, 4160 Tuesdays’ Make Your Own Perfume, and Greg McLeod’s Sequential Art, Comic and Storyboarding Masterclass.
And ALSO’s glorious half-mile wide lake takes centre stage with a lakeside sauna and cold plunge, SUP experiences, and Wild Swimming at its most magical with guided Dusk and Starlit sessions.
