Fantastic from start to finish
I knew I would return after about an hour. See you in 2019!
A fantastic weekend! It was like being a kid again, but without all the things that made being a kid terrible. It was absolutely action packed, entertaining, and a wild ride from start to end
A MAGICAL PLACE! great activities and the best people! A must to go every year!! <3
This was our first Camp Wildfire and we absolutely loved it! We were working here but had an amazing time in between our Silent Yoga sessions. I would recommend this festival to anyone who wants to take part in fun activities during the day to earn your party at night
I love everything about this festival. Scout camp for grown ups! A real highlight of my year! There are hundreds of music festivals every year but there's only one Camp Wildfire...
Amazing! Attracts all the right sort of people, its not a big commercial festival, but a long weekend of fun with strangers who soon become friends. Can't fault it, you get to learn new things, laugh, dance, drink and generally forget about technology and the outside world. Please don't change! I'll be back x
An absolutely magical weekend! I've been coming since the first one and while I always worry about it growing too big and losing the amazing atmosphere it has, it never does. Such lovely people, everyone is so friendly and approachable, activities are a lot of fun, and the partying in the evening is great. Go Foxes!! 🦊

most incredible weekend ever! I've never learnt so much or made so many friends at once! hawks go hard!!!!
Awesome fun, wonderful people, a unique and super exciting weekend of adventure and joy!
Fantastic atmosphere, lovely people, great activities!
One of the weirdest and most wonderful festivals I've ever been to. Our group (which grows bigger every year) has been going for three years - even though we've just come back, we can't wait for Wildfire 2019!
Loved the experience! Got to try out my hand at Aerial Circus (which I’ve wanted to do for years!) alongside Axe Throwing, Crossbows and Firearms which terrified me initially but I enjoyed. Found the first aid / firestarting courses really informative and would definitely love to try the likes of shelter building next year! Great music lineup and also campfire talks/poetry if you’d rather have a quiet night. Would definitely go again! Thank you
First time at the festival and so glad i found out about it. Equally suited to those looking for more of a wild party, having a drink and partying late into the night or those who like a more chilled out time around the campfire or chilling with friends in the camp site. There are so many activities for all and a huge variety to choose from, truly one of its kind, helping you to feel at one with nature. Just do it!
Still buzzing from the weekend, learning new skills, meeting new people, having fun in the wild and sitting by the camp fire! 100% recommend.
Having been to wildfire two years in a row now, I can honestly say that it is one of the best experiences I’ve ever had. Perhaps there were a few things that could have been done better, but for a festival that is unlike any other and only just starting out, there are bound to be teething problems. From sitting on the floor in the middle of a forest making my own flower crown to committing grand theft pineapple to win the scavenger hunt, every moment of my weekend was magical, and I hope to return next year to what can only get better. Go badgers!!
No kids allowed so we get to be kids! Small festival, everyone super-friendly. Brilliant fun, whether you want to make macrame or get chased by zombies...
I had the most amazing weekend, I couldn't have asked for a better first experience. Plenty of clean toilets throughout, range of activities for everyone. It's such a welcoming place you really can just sit with anyone and start chatting there's a beautiful vibe throughout the camp. Bought next year's ticket the day after, highly recommend. Thanks guys! ❤🦊
Activities and camaraderie
This year was my third year. Have had many great experiences here and appreciate them for trying to do something different to the standard festival!
An amazing weekend in the woods. Everyone was friendly, relaxed, and respectful of the location and environment. Will definitely be back!
Such a great weekend! I even bought an official camp wildfire ‘Team Hawk’ neckerchief ready for when I return next year!Do this.
I stumbled across camp Wildfire and was intrigued. I have been to many festivals and Camp Wildfire is one of a kind. Everyone from the patrol leaders down to everyone attending are soo friendly and look out for everyone. The whole atmosphere was just electric from the start of the initianions on Friday to the last song on Sunday night. There was never a dull moment and the small touches such as the radio wildfire announcements just make this festival even better. Sure there was a couple of things where improvements could be made but in the grand scheme of the festival these are minute issues. You have gained a life long fox and I will see all you lovely people next year where we will claim the title back from those squirrels. Finally a big thank you to Lee and Jules for all your hard work in putting on such a magical weekend. Toodle-oo campers. #WHATTHEFOX #WEWILLFOXYOU
Great fun and really friendly atmosphere!
Amazing weekend with such great range of activities to partake in. Good music at night. Great if you single as they have their own singles club. Have a fantastic weekend with likeminded people and have already brought my ticket for next year! It’s going to be a very long wait!
such an incredible weekend! Everyone is so friendly and there's enough stuff going on you can choose to take it easy or party the night away! All ready to complete some fab activities in the day.
I absolutely loved camp wildfire!! So different to a normal festival, it's not just about the evenings and the day activities are amazing. I had such a great time and I've already convinced two friends to join us next year! I would recommend it to anyone. Everyone is so lovely! Come on you Hawks 🦅
Such an amazing family-like atmosphere. Everyone totally throws themselves into all the activities during the day, and massive party vibes at night. Come if you want to hang out in a dreamy setting, with a Wes Anderson aesthetic and childhood playful nostalgia. Every year at Wildfire you come away with epic new friends, bring on 2019 <3
I loved every minute of it. It's such a relaxed and friendly atmosphere. The music, food, and drink were expertly selected. There's a nice mix of crafty and active activities and the patrol competitions were so much fun. I recommend it to anyone who likes to try new things and isn't scared of getting dirty!
best festival I've been to in years!! WILDFIRE CHAMPIONS 2018 SQUIRRELS!! WE LOVE NUTS!
Great festival - a Scout Camp for grown ups! Bush craft, garage music, radio kit, wild shack building, sports. 10/10!
What a weekend. We did loads of activities and also squeezed in somethings we hadn’t planned to which were unexpected treats.A small, quality festival.Where else can you try beekeeping and play piggyback dodgeball after trying out silent disco yoga???
Absolutely fabulous weekend!! Great atmosphere with perfect balance of escapism and wild party fun! Patrols make a nice touch meaning you really feel part of something while you’re there, whether you go as 1 person or 10! Would recommend in a heartbeat - 1st time camperoonie
Had an amazing weekend, wholesome, friendly chilled out atmosphere. Such wonderful variety! Really appreciate all of the hard work that has gone into everything and the location is AMAZING! Would love to see more performance art in the evening and a fair ground ride perhaps a small Ferris wheel, also maybe some sort of food for breakfast at the campsite ⛺️. It was our first year and we will definitely be back! If not just to receive the “BYE” chant from the whole camp as we left 😁 well done Lee and Jules!!
Amazing venue and atmosphere. Loved all of the activities although a few others did mention the 9am Saturday sessions were a little disorganised as they were the first time the sessions had been run. Definitely intend on returning next year! My only suggestion would be for some of the patrol games to not be physical. As someone who sprained her ankle the day before camp wildfire started, I couldn't participate in any! Team Hawks to win next year 🦅
What a wonderful weekend. Fantastic company, beautiful setting, great entertainment and an awesome selection of activities. I was initially disappointed because I didn't get the activities I wanted. however I needn't have been. the activities I did choose were so much fun, interesting and pushed me out of my comfort zone. excellent weekend. All of our group plan to return 😁
My favourite festival. It's the best. Half adventure camp, half music festival - you spend all day doing a random selection of activities you don't normally get to do once you're a grown up, then bands play at night. Really different from most festivals, in a great way.
Fun times. Beautiful forest setting. Good food. Good music. Don’t hand out plastic cups at the bar - only suggestion would be to sell pint sized mugs for logistical ease, but great effort. Cool camp radio. Didn’t stay so cant comment on camping or showers. Nice vibe. Not too packed. Friendly people. Fun!
Super fun, little festival with less music offering than i expected but great activities- though how they got some of them insured I have no idea!!!
I really enjoyed Wildfire. There was a great range of activities. Just a few points for improvement:Reconsider some aspects of your eco policy - not to serve plastic, and then to ask us to decant wine into plastic bottles on entering the camp, is contradictory. Glass can be recycled, no?Please cut the grass in he camping area - it will make it much pleasanter to walk through.Signage should be displayed from Friday. Looking forward to next year!
