As a family-friendly festival we have made sure that there is plenty to keep everyone entertained. These are spread out across the site including on the lawn and in the lower field. 

​​​​

At DorsetFest we have circus workshops, bubble shows, bouncy castles, creepy crawlies and even axe throwing. Take a look below at what to expect at 2026 and several of these are included in the cost of the ticket price, though some will charge.

​​

To ensure that everyone has fun we ask for children to be supervised at all times. When you arrive at the festival please point out the Information Tent (in the main festival field) for children to go to in the unlikely case they become separated from their grown-ups. As always, anyone in a 'Crew' or 'Safety' T-shirt will also be available to help.
