PARTY SEASON

27 MAY - 30 JUNE

Cambridge Nature Festival The first of its kind in the city, this festival, organised by Cambridge Nature Network – a composite of organisations working to boost the natural world in the area – hinges on all things green. “You don’t have to go far to find wildlife in Cambridge, and the festival aims to celebrate this and get us all more in touch with the amazing natural world on our doorsteps,” explains festival organiser Natalie Lambert. Boasting family-friendly activities galore, including BioBlitzes, guided nature wanders, live music, wildlife ID workshops, art exhibitions and much more, a Wildlife Day at Wandlebury Country Park opens the festival. Natalie continues: “We hope to inspire people to discover more about nature and to create such a buzz (pun intended) that we all want to do it again next year!”

1-3 JULY

WILD WOOD RUMPUS There’s something to tickle everyone’s fancy at this family- friendly shindig, from theatre, circus acts and literature, to wild bush crafts and forest fun. Get back to nature with shelter making and a forest school – plus, plenty of delicious food to delight the taste buds. 4-5 JUNE

MAD HATTER’S MINI FESTIVAL Showcasing the cream of Cambridge’s crop of musicians, Tom Lumley & The Brave Liaison headline this festival. For some respite, head to willow weaving, mandolin or grow-your-own workshops, or partake in yoga and wellness sessions. Camping or day tickets are available.
