Deva Fest

All music festivals claim to be different, but Deva Fest truly stands out! Deva Fest is designed with festival-goers in mind, ensuring an unforgettable experience from start to finish.

Nestled in the heart of Cheshire, Deva Fest is the ultimate family-friendly event. Conveniently, shuttle buses operate from nearby towns and cities such as Chester, Ellesmere Port, Wrexham, and Tarporley, making it easy for families to attend. For those who prefer to drive, day parking is just £1. New for 2024, shuttle buses will also serve Crewe, Nantwich, Shrewsbury, and Whitchurch.

Deva Fest boasts an exceptional selection of street food vendors, headlined by the award-winning Chester restaurant Artezzan. The festival's bars are managed by the renowned operators of Liquor and Co, Craft and Company, and Lockwood & Co, ensuring top-notch refreshments.

Families will love that all fairground rides are free, eliminating the need for constant spending. Kids can enjoy a variety of activities, including Kids Kingdom, onsite watersports, circus shows, entertainment, and parades.

One of the festival's most praised features is its clean and well-maintained restrooms, comparable to those found at weddings. This attention to detail has earned Deva Fest glowing reviews, with 96.6% of guests from the 2023 event survey stating they would recommend the festival to friends.

Deva Fest's journey began with a pilot event in 2018, followed by a full-scale launch in 2019 featuring performances by The Feeling and Symphonic Ibiza. After a pandemic-induced hiatus in 2020 and 2021, the festival returned triumphantly in 2022, drawing over 4,000 attendees each day with acts like Sophie Ellis-Bextor, Scouting for Girls, Heather Small, and more.

In 2023, Deva Fest moved to its new home at Cholmondeley Castle, continuing to offer a delightful and affordable experience for all. Discover why Deva Fest is a standout event and join in on the fun!
