Description


Rosie the Riveter and Rob the Wrencher are putting on their finest threads, picking up their tools and inviting you to Rumpus for 7 rooms bursting with an explosion of live bands, DJs, circus and performers for a celebration of every time you’ve put on a dress, picked up a tankard of mead, and fluttered your eyelashes at someone (don’t pretend you haven’t) and every time you’ve taken something apart trying to fix it, and ended up with a pile of left over bits!

The undisputed kings of the festival scene, Slamboree Soundsystem are taking over the main stage to unleash a tidal wave of beats and beats. Our friends The Old Saw Mill Garden Party crew will be marching down from the cold north to run one of their trademark immersive and interactive dancefloors.

Read on for a full line up – but be warned, we keep adding new acts to this already impossibly full line up every week!

See you on the dancefloor!

Room 6 - The Rumpus Cinerave

If you’ve never seen a room full of people attentively watching VJ projections explode into a full on rave, then you’ve simply never seen VJ Harper at work

Room 7 – The Wonderland Café

They ran a room bursting with magic and music at Rumpus Vol 24, and their back to care for weary partiers with cake, tea and general silliness. We love the Wonderland crew.
