Weather
Festival-goers gearing up for the Wilderness Festival 2023 should anticipate dancing in the rain due to varying weather conditions expected in Charlbury this weekend. The Met Office forecasts possible showers spreading throughout the festival, lending an unpredictable touch to the ambiance.
According to the forecast, Saturday is expected to have the heaviest rainfall, so festival-goers should pack raincoats and wellies. However, the weather won’t dampen the party spirit, as attendees will still enjoy the music, workshops, and wilderness experiences promised by the festival.
Location
Wilderness Festival is held at Cornbury Park in Oxfordshire. It’s important to follow the yellow signs when approaching the festival instead of relying on your satnav. This will ensure you enter through the correct gate and bypass Charlbury Town.
