JEST’ival 2026

Hola again, you wonderful lot,

JEST’ival is BACK and 2026 is shaping up to be our biggest, boldest, most joy-filled year yet. We are planning some of the old favourites plus bigger moments, better vibes, and exciting surprises are coming your way.

For the newbies .... Welcome, we are so glad you are here .... What is JEST'ival? 

JEST'ival is an intimate music festival held in the magical grounds of Gaunt's House in East Dorset. 2026 will be our fourth JEST'ival and we are very proud of what it is and what it means to so many people.  We love putting it on and you love coming, This really does create the perfect mix of chill, fun, crazy, creative and much more. 

Don’t just take our word for it… here’s what our wonderful fesival'ers had to say last time 👇

“Literally best weekend ever ”
“Definitely the highlight of my year”
“The best festival I’ve ever been to”
“The energy, the vibes, the dancing… absolutely incredible”

JEST'ival is all about having fun. We are passionate about making sure that you have the most amazing weekend together, dancing, singing, laughing, making friends and relaxing in the beautiful Dorset countryside. 

Because it is small, and advertised through word of mouth, JEST'ival is extra special because we all have a connection to each other. But it also means that we rely on you all to buy your tickets as early as you can, and spread the love of JEST'ival to your family and friends. More ticket sales equals more fun for us ...

So please mark your calendars, share details with friends and family, and gather your people. Let's get ready to do it all again louder, brighter, and deeper in the fun zone.

Peace, love & joy ✌️

Jess, Lucas, Ruby and Brooke x
