Boomtown is an English festival with an anarchic creative spirit and its own mythology surrounding each year’s edition. Conceptualised as a city with its own politics and cultural evolution, those attending the festival are residents of Boomtown and have a part to play in its unfolding narrative. A taste for ketamine among the citizens not being part of the official story.

The organisers say:

“Inevitably things have come a pretty long way since we first embarked on this journey in 2009…

As a young, ambitious team of live entertainment enthusiasts, we set out to create the ultimate experience in the festival world. Combining all the music we love with theatre, interactive set design, freedom and escapism, we wanted to showcase what festivals meant to us; to all ages and backgrounds, to those who may not have previously experienced the depths and variety of what a festival can achieve.”
