There was a brief fear that Cornbury Festival wouldn’t see another year, but thankfully that’s not the case.

In fact it’s gone from nearly closing its doors to hosting a line-up of critically acclaimed musicians - Alanis Morissette, UB40 and Amy McDonald to name a few - accompanied by a menu crafted by the nation’s favourite hairy chefs - Dave Myers and Si King.

Announcing one hell of a comeback Cornbury Music Festival founder, Hugh Phillimore, wrote: “I’ve been humbled by the strength of feeling for Cornbury and I’ve realised that I should keep it going as a worthwhile community gathering.”

The Hairy Bikers bring a Festival Feast

On top of a musical line-up for festival goers to feast their eyes on, this year The Hairy Bikers will be hosting a ‘Pop Up Woody Fired Restaurant’ throughout the weekend.

Diners will have to book a place at the festival feast inspired by the duo’s latest cookbook The Hairy Bikers Mediterranean Adventure - we’re talking wood fired chicken, couscous, roasted aubergne, and all the lentils. Proper nice festival grub. There’s a sample menu available to view online.
