A Note From The Organisers About Lakefest

Lakefest was born unofficially on April 9th 2011 when Croft Farm Waterpark hosted its inaugural music and cider festival. On April 9th 2011 the sun shone, the revellers came and 8,500 pints of traditional cider were shared by just over 1,500 people.

Classic West Country games like Welly Wanging and skittles were available to play with a years gym membership up for grabs!

To further enhance the West Country theme we had a combine harvester on display, a gypsy dray and all the bar staff were kitted out with flat caps, neckerchiefs and white t-shirts. The weather was so good, groups of people without tickets congregated on the grass outside the marquee to share in the absolutely mindblowing day. The Roving Crows got the crowd bouncing and at 11.30pm The Wurzels started “I got a brand new combine Harvester” and the whole marquee was jumping. This continued into the early hours….

The feedback was so positive and so much fun was had by so many that planning went immediately into “Lakefest”. The three founders agreed that the cider and West Country theme was such a huge success that it could never be replicated but we enjoyed the organising and event and wanted to do it again. The legacy had been set, hence, Lakefest.

The plan is never to be a Reading or Glastonbury but be something special for special people that want to come, drink, laugh, dance and party. Sometimes less is more…*
