The festival runs from noon until 11 p.m. on Saturday, 22 August. You're looking at live acts and DJs throughout the day, with the grounds transforming into a proper festival site. Street food stalls and multiple bars keep the appetite and spirits up from lunchtime through to late evening. There's also VIP areas available if you want to elevate the experience.
The vibe
Tatton Park's sprawling estate provides a genuinely spacious backdrop—none of that crushed-in-a-field feeling you get at some festivals. It's peak summer energy: outdoor stages, picnic blankets, the kind of crowd that's here to enjoy themselves without taking it all too seriously. Food traders keep things interesting, and there's room to move between stages or just settle in with a drink and good company.
Getting tickets
Cheshire Fest operates on an 18+ entry policy, so bring ID. Ticket prices and VIP packages aren't listed yet—worth checking back closer to the date or signing up for alerts to catch early-bird releases.
