Something Wild Festival
Something Wild Festival is a multi-discipline outdoor event at a farm field site overlooking Hope Cove, Kingsbridge, Devon. The site sits beside the sea and serves as the fulcrum for routes that use sections of the South West Coast Path and take in the Avon and Salcombe estuaries. The festival includes a separate camp village and festival village, camping for up to 100 tents, parking for vehicles and camper vans, extra compost toilet facilities and warm showers.
The programme combines trail running, swim runs and sea swims with family-focused activities and evening entertainment. A communal meal and live music feature on some evenings, and a cafe and bar will sell locally brewed beer, non-alcoholic drinks, vodka, gin and cocktails. Speakers, yoga, massage and movement sessions are scheduled alongside children’s activities and a film night.
Forest school runs morning and afternoon sessions on Saturday and Sunday with qualified leaders; forest school tickets are available separately or as part of weekend tickets that include camping and parking.
The festival also stages sea swims and Rocky Horror SwimRun events in solo and pairs categories with multiple distance options.
