Lakefest is a music festival, aimed primarily at families with activities, music and entertainment for all ages. This year some of the 200+ performers include Olly Murs, Rudimental, Libertines, Stranglers, Sigala, Jake Bugg. The event is a camping event and this year we are expecting approximately 13,000 people to attend.

We work closely with the Safety Advisory Group at Herefordshire Council on the event plans for the festival.

We monitor our sound levels constantly to ensure that we stay within the limits set and we work hard to ensure that we have as little impact on our neighbors and surrounding area as we can.
