Green Man Festival embraces Future Generations

Kid’s Areas are so last season… all hail the Future Generations!

Future Generations (formerly the Kids Area) is Green Man’s all-new adult-free adventure zone, exclusively designed for young people of all shapes and sizes under the age of 18.

From toddlers to teens and everyone in between, there’s never a dull moment with tonnes of cool stuff to explore across six exciting activity areas!

Join the circus, learn to DJ, be part of a film crew, create amazing animations, make monster hand puppets or hone your music production skills using the very latest computer software!

Rock out with a brilliant line-up of live music showcasing the UK’s best young hip hop, indie, grime, pop and rap acts, courtesy of Bristol youth project New Generation Takeover.

Lose yourself in a fancy dress fantasy world with professional costume makers and make-up artists, or have your picture taken inside Camper Obscura – a giant mobile camera housed in a vintage VW camper van!

Here’s just a taster of what’s going down at Future Generations this summer – you’re only limited by your imagination!

Fantasy Tent Don’t just paint your face – paint your whole body and be a walking talking lizard or pirate! Take part in drama classes, make fancy dress masterpieces, learn circus skills and find the hidden performer inside!

Create Tent Turn old scrap into fun musical instruments and discover your creative side by making monster hand puppets, giant paintings, willow sculptures, carnival headdresses, bunting, windmills and more!
