ENTER THE REALM

Slipshod Gathering isn't just a festival, it's a portal. A hand-built world where chaos becomes magic, strangers become kin, and the lines between artist and audience blur into myth. This is a place to remember who you were before the world told you who to be.

To get weird. Get raw. Get real. To build something beautiful out of the bodged, the broken, and the brilliant.

The Ethos

The Ethos

We adhere to the principles of radical self-reliance and communal effort. There are no spectators at Slipshod, only participants. We build the stages together, we cook together, and we dance together.

Our Site - Scholey Park

Scholey Park is ancient woodlands, winding streams, and wildflower meadows that transform when the sun goes down. Follow the festoon lights off the path. Find the stages that aren't on the map. Stumble into hidden installations, quiet clearings, and the strange creatures who've made the woods their home.

Family Friendly

Family Friendly

Slipshod is a place for everyone. We welcome families, solo wanderers, and crews of all kinds. Throughout the weekend you'll find workshops for all ages — from craft and movement to music and making. We've built this space to be creative, inclusive, and safe. A place where kids can roam, parents can breathe, and everyone feels like they belong.

Dog Friendly

Dogs are welcome at Slipshod. Keep them on a lead, clean up after them, and make sure they're happy around crowds and bass. If your dog loves a festival, they'll fit right in.
