Description
Rewind Festival is a celebration of music, fun and good times, set to a live 80โs soundtrack from the biggest music icons from the decade of day-glo and big hair. It takes place in Temple Island Meadows, Remenham, Berkshire near Henley-on-Thames, England, Capesthorne Hall, Cheshire, England, and Scone Palace, Perthshire in Scotland.
More Than Just Music
Since its inception, Rewind Festival has delivered an entertaining experience beyond live performances. The inaugural festival included a funfair, colorful street performers, and comedians from The Comedy Store as well, setting the stage for an excellent weekend. Into The Groove and The Rival Organisation hosted it, after a string of retro-themed shows preceding it.
Rewind has, over the years, expanded its activities to provide visitors with a range of experiences, such as camping and glamping accommodation, dramatic fireworks, theme bars, roller and silent discos, live karaoke performances, and the highly successful Big Sing choir activity, as well as an energetic Friday night welcome party.
Festival Growth and Attendance
By the year 2019, Rewind was the UK's best-loved retro festival with three versionsโScotland, South, and Northโwhose attendance figures were mind-boggling: 30,000 in Scotland, 40,000 in the South, and 20,000 in the North.
What's New for 2025
Looking ahead to 2025, there are a couple of significant changes on the horizon. Rewind Scotland has a bye next year and Rewind North is no more as Capesthorne Hall is stepping away from camp festivals. But Rewind South is back on 15th-17th August, early bird tickets from 18th October, with the complete lineup announced in January.
