More about Latitude Festival

The first festival our volunteers will be working at this summer is Latitude. As well as three music stages, Latitude Festival features comedy, cabaret, theatre, literature, poetry, art, film and dance tents. It is set in beautiful surroundings around a lake and woods in Henham Park, in the middle of the Suffolk countryside.

One of the best things about Latitude is the variety and creativity of it all. You never know what you might see next. There are painted sheep, all sorts of happenings in the woods, live radio broadcasts from the BBC, a Pimms Island, book club, human music box...and even some bands...

Now in it's fourth year, Latitude has really established itself among the cream of UK festivals. With a massive children's arena and family campsite too it's great for kids and has such a lovely atmosphere.

Hopefully you can tell by now that we can't wait to be there!
