Adult Creche
Now, how can we keep the adults out of trouble? By rounding them up and installing them in our Adult Creche, AKA The Pimm’s Tent, that’s how. The quintessential British summer tipple, supped in a truly glorious part of the world; it doesn’t get much better than that. Soft drinks will also be on offer but unfortunately no bouncy castle in this area.
Forest Craft Emporium
This is where you can indulge yourself with some of the finest local arts and crafts: hand crafted jewellery, home-made bath bombs and soaps, which are all organic and smell DIVINE, beach-style pieces fashioned from pebbles and driftwood, Tiffany style artworks, watercolours from local artists, accessories for your favourites furry, four-legged friend and intricate paper flowers are just some of the glorious items you can purchase here.
Va Va Vintage
For those of you that appreciate the workmanship of days gone by, this curiosity corner is for you. Not only will there be vintage clothes, jewellery and bric-a-brac on sale but an outstanding collection of classic cars for you to ‘ooh’ and ‘ahh’ over. Lose yourself ‘discovering’ old records at the vintage record fair or join in with the odd masterclass in Jive and Lindy hop. You can be any age to join in all this fun, age is but a number!
L’il Scrumpers
Keep the children happy and you keep the parents happy. This kid’s play area is a smorgasbord of activities, designed to delight and engage with the most discerning of little people. Fancy being captain of a swing boat? Want your face painted? Did I hear you say you want lots of glitter? You want to jump around on the bounciest of castles? You want to bounce even higher on our trampoline? All this and more available at L’il Scrumpers. Oh. And ice cream. Oodles of delicious ice cream………
Mystic Tree
Double double toil and trouble/Fire burn and cauldron bubble! Burley is synonymous with witches and in acknowledgement to our mysterious ancestors and the newer religion of Wicca, we offer an area where you can really explore your spiritual side. Get your Tarot Cards read or maybe try some crystal gazing, all with a liberal sprinkle of fairy dust, and see what the future might hold for you. Fairy wings and broomsticks optional.

Festival Bars
Revelling can be thirsty work! Panic ye not, we will provide a suitable amount of watering holes to keep you hydrated. You can choose from The Outside Inn (see what we did there?) or The Local Burley Bar, manned by some of the village’s friendliest faces. For those of you that like a juniper-based tipple, we have gin bars and then some! We also welcome The Shandy Shack; for those that love the odd festival beer.

Delish stuff on Deer Street.
Roots Veg Patch
There is no ignoring the rise of plant-based diets. There are more vegetarians, vegans and flexitarians than ever and an increasing array of choice in the meat free arena. At the Burley Festival we celebrate the healthy choices that this lifestyle can offer. We aim to offer you some delicious meat free alternatives and generally showcase all things green!
