When Is Wild Canvas 2024?
Spanning the school holidays from 25 July to 27 August, the event offers an ideal setting for camping and relaxation.
Where Is Wild Canvas?
Celebrating its fifth year, this five-week pop-up is set in the scenic riverside meadows of Turvey House Estate in Bedfordshire, a mere 1.5 hours away from London.
What Can You Do at Wild Canvas?
Guests can leave the daily grind behind and delve into nature, music, creative arts and wellness. The campsite, with its friendly and laid-back atmosphere, is ideal for visitors of all ages.
A variety of activities are available, both complimentary and for a fee, ranging from dance classes to a casual children’s crafts club and the highly favoured superhero-themed kids’ disco. Additionally, guests can take part in guided paddle-boarding lessons or use their own kayaks and paddleboards to navigate the River Great Ouse, which flows through the site.
This year, Wild Canvas introduces The Nest, a riverside wellness area, providing complimentary morning activities (including yoga, pilates, site runs, and bootcamps), various classes during the day, a treatment tent and a new riverside sauna to enhance the outdoor experience.
Additionally, the new Canvas Social features a large Kata Tipi tent, which will offer a variety of children’s activities, storytelling and talent shows, along with a sheltered seating area and evening social gatherings.
