Great for families

Bring the kids. Bring the grandparents. There's room for everyone on the grass.

  • Children watching an artist paint the KENFEST mural
  • Children playing on the grass in the sunshine beside the KENFEST marquees
  • A smiling child with a butterfly painted across their face
  • Children and adults sitting on hay bales on the grass, watching a performer
  • An artist painting a Tudor-style mural on the grass at KENFEST
  • Parents and children relaxing on picnic blankets on the grass at KENFEST

While the children bounce, paint and play, you can sit back with a drink and a bite to eat.

Good to know: under 18s must be with a responsible adult. Prams and pushchairs can't go in the entertainment tent.

  • Gladiator, soft play games, face painting and glitter tattoos
  • Kids Zone open from 1pm to 8pm
