Are you ready to experience the fantastical world of Boomtown? An annual British music festival held on the Matterley Estate near Winchester, Hampshire, since 2011 has evolved from a small gathering amongst friends into an expansive pop-up city that celebrates all forms of musical and artistic creation.
Its fantastic variety of bands, DJs, and speakers captivate the crowd on various stages throughout many themed districts. It's an interactive experience that encourages creativity and connection in pursuit of a more harmonious world through celebration!
From mindblowing main stages to enchanting street venues, Boomtown's themed districts are alive with exhilarating music, including ska, world, punk, gypsy, reggae, and disco via electro-swing, jazz, bluegrass, bass, jungle, and techno.
