About



Festival Kidz was formed in 2010 and run by Naomi since 2013.  The site is written by people passionate about going to music festivals with their kids to help, inspire and support newbie families who want to give festival-going a go.

Many parents haven’t even considered the notion of taking children to a music festival, so we want to show that it is not only possible to go to a festival with your children but it can be a great deal of fun too!

All the contributors on this site are unpaid, but we are given press tickets in return for reviews. However all our writers are festival going parents and provide honest reviews – the organisers do not edit our work and we will not compromise this. If a festival organiser is unhappy with the review the only thing we offer is to take it down.

Those that run this website do it for their love of taking their children to festivals, and sharing that love and their experiences with other like-minded families. Most years we barely cover our costs. So if Festival Kidz has been helpful to you would you be able to help us with our running costs?

Any income generated goes towards the hosting and administrative costs of keeping the site running, so please support us if you can.  Most product links are affiliate links and may earn us a small commission, again this goes towards our operating costs, so please click through on them where you can. After many years of self-funding we’re finding it harder to meet our costs, so without your help we will not be able to survive.

Want to sponsor us?  We are looking into the possibility of a key sponsor for the website – if your business or brand is in line with our ethos and fits our family audience please contact naomi@festivalkidz.com.
