BOWMAN ALES are proud to support and supply the Wickham Festival
it’s a 4-day music & arts festival held every August in a stunningly beautiful rural location near the historic village of Wickham in Hampshire. With live music on four stages plus a host of other entertainment, Wickham is rated by many as one of the safest, most relaxed and family-friendly festivals in the UK. We were voted Best UK Festival, capacity under 15000 at the Live UK Music Business Awards in October 2015. This January we won the Best Festival category in the local Culture Guide Awards. Each year we introduce new ideas and keep what works, so please get involved on our social channels to send us feedback … good or bad. We already have some great plans for 2020 and can’t wait to put this into action.
On arrival in Wickham, just follow the yellow ‘Festival’ direction signs. There is plenty of free parking right next to the festival site with 24-hour security.
Please note there is no late evening bus service to Fareham or Winchester. A taxi to Fareham will cost around £10 and there will be a Taxi Rank close to the entrance of our Festival site in Blind Lane, Wickham.
