If those velvet sofas and vintage rugs could talk, they’d have 23 years worth of stories to tell. The People’s Front Room has been the cosy, eccentric, grassroots home away from home for Shambalans for over two decades 🛋️
We recently sat down with Faith to talk about the evolution of the space, the crucial role of grassroots music culture in the festival scene, and some of her most cherished Shambala moments x

If you like your weekend with a side of comfort and convenience, say hello to the Dragonfly Camping Fields, our dreamy new camping area 🌿
Jam packed with all the creature comforts you could possibly dream of… Lush hot showers, a pamper parlour, bougie compost loos, spacious camping, a camp lounge with wifi, a cosy communal campfire to make friends around, plus dedicated parking just a short walk away.
You can bring your own tent to pitch up, OR team up with our glamping providers to skip the setup entirely. If you’d rather not fanny about with tent pegs, they still have a few pre-pitched setups available - from luxury tipis and traditional yurts, to beautiful bell tents and retro 1970s vintage canvas tents, there’s something for every budget x

Meet our rad new spirits supplier, @evrythng_cc, and vote where their Shambala profits will go…
Unlike conventional drinks brands, Evrythng gives away 100% of its distributable profits to organisations tackling the climate and nature crises. Which means every G&T, rum punch or vodka soda you order at Shambala helps direct more funding towards people already doing incredible work to restore nature.
This year, their profits will be shared between three brilliant organisations – @ketteringnaturegroup, @rootsandshoots1982 and @avonneedstrees - and Shambalans get to decide how the funds are distributed.
💚 🔗 Find out more and cast your vote here: www.shambalafestival.org/meet-our-rad-new-spirits-supplier-evrythng/
