Goths on a Field 6

Welcome to the ticketing page for Goths on a Field 6!

As per the previous GOAF events, this is not a commercial festival, but is instead a volunteer-managed, social-camping event intended to give people a chance to get together, catch up, relax and generally have a good time!  And not only have we secured a great place to do this, but we've also got some great musical acts joining us!

Also, our on-site catering team will be joining us again, to provide the very best in freshly cooked food, plus a small range of alcoholic drinks!  More on this below...

Details of the performances on the Friday night are still being finalised; stay tuned!

MILQUETOAST

Who are they?  Do they really contain nuts?  Just who is that masked badger?  A mysterious coalition of forces have come together to produce something very special for the Friday night.  Bring popcorn!

Lilac Underworld

An impish blend of cabaret, soulful music and soaring vocals, Lilac Underground mesmerises the audience in every way possible!

Coor Brow-Oble

Bringing the very best available eyeliner alongside his guitar and a wry sense of humour, Coor is here to open the show!

A fond favorite who have played at gothically-inclined festivals across the UK, Glass House Museum are here to kick off the party!

Blind Cat

The Wattingers are an amazing band, and have started a side project to delve deeper into their brand of dark americana.  And we're all here for it!

Iamimperfect

Hailing from (not so) sunny Sheffield, Iamimperfect has been getting some international attention thanks to their heartfelt synthwave sounds

Please note: as per past GOAFs, we'll have a 2 hour break inbetween the afternoon and evening band sets.

Matt Hart

Here to make sure we're all awake and pumped for the evening, Matt - and his moustache - will make the barn bounce!

Social Youth Cult bring a more traditional goth sound to the field, so bring your winklepickers for some dancing!

Hauntingly ethereal, Witch of the Vale weave a beautiful soundscape which will stay with you for days

Sunday July 12th

Alas, Sunday is when we pack up and leave, so there's no formal activities.  Though we might be able to coax a bit of music out of the DJs on the outdoor stage...

Either way, we do ask that people be offsite by 12:00 (midday); we also welcome any volunteers who would like to help us clean and sanity check the fields before we all head home!

Comperes

Wesley Mallin

An amazing performer in his own right, Wesley is here to guide us from act to act, with his imimitable charm and grace!

The Venue and Location

GOAF 6 will be held at a farm in Northwood, just between Wrexham and Shrewsbury.  As this is a private event, we don't publicise the full address online, but we do email all ticket purchasers ahead of the event, with full details of the location and directional guides.  Please contact the organisers if you do have any queries about the location which you'd like to get confirmed in advance of this.

The fields are easily accessible from the main road, and we'll put up signposts on the weekend to help guide people in.

Cars can be parked on the fields, and people are welcome to bring campervans at no extra cost, though please note that no power hookups are available.

Please note that we ask attendees to respect the following:

• The farm itself will be off limits for the duration of the festival
• This is a working farm, so pets are not allowed
• Fires/BBQs are permitted, but must raised above the ground
• Keep noise to a minimum when near the farm buildings
• Ensure that gates etc are kept closed
• Don't litter or leave rubbish behind; bin liners will be provided, so please make use of these!

Facilities

The fields for camping are flat and well drained; people are welcome to park their vehicles by their tents.  The bottom end of the fields will be designated as a quiet area; we ask that people please respect this when choosing where to set up for the weekend!

The farm has two stages: a larger one inside a barn, and a second smaller "outdoor" one by the camping fields.  All band performances will be in the barn, which is wonderfully weather-proof, and also has seating and tables.  DJ performances will be on the outdoor stage, though please note that these may be affected in the event of any bad weather!

There is a toilet block at the "upper" end of the field with separate male/female facilities, as well as a no-stairs toilet for anyone with limited mobility. Please note that we will not be keeping these stocked with toiletries, so it's recommended that you bring your own!

The toilets also have taps for drinking water, and there's a small shower block where you can get a hot shower.  Please note that the showers are coin operated (£1 for 10 minutes), so please ensure you bring change!

 For 2026, we will have a catering van, which will serve food and a small selection of bottled beers and spirits. The caterers have an extensive menu which includes full english breakfasts, an "all day" menu which includes burgers, hot dogs, jacket spuds, toasted baguettes, a kids menu and a set of evening meals ranging from fish and chips, to a grill and pies.  Vegetarian and Vegan options are also available, and we'll be sending full details to all attendees.

The Event

GOAF 6 is not a festival with professional staff.  Instead, it's a private event ran by volunteers, and while we do have on-site catering, people are welcome to bring their own food and drinks; there's a number of supermarkets in the nearby towns and villages.  Similarly, while there are toilet facilities on the site, we will not be keeping them stocked with toiletries!

As such, please bring everything which you need for the weekend - e.g. food, drink, sanitary products, toilet roll, battery packs, etc. And if you do have any special requirements, please contact the organisers prior to buying a ticket, so that we can confirm if we're able to support them.

Children are welcome to join us, and can attend for free if under the age of 16; anyone older than this will be expected to purchase a full-price ticket.  However, please note that neither the farm nor the GOAF volunteers can accept any responsibility for the safety or wellbeing of any children who do attend!

Equally, please note that all attendees are expected to:

• Accept personal responsibility at all times for their actions
• Look after their personal possessions
• Treat all other attendees with respect
• Treat the farm with respect, especially with respect to noise levels and litter

In the event of any inappropriate or disruptive behaviour - including the use of illegal drugs - people will be asked to immediately leave, and refunds will not be given.

As with all live events, performances and timings may be subject to change.  If this does cause any concerns, please contact the organisers; refunds etc will be handled as per the Tickets section below.
