What is PLAY

PLAY is back for its second year of joyfulness and we can’t wait to see you again. To those of you who are new here, a little run down of what you can expect.

PLAY is a non-profit creative gathering celebrating collaboration, curiosity, and imagination.

Designed as a one-day festival, it brings together creatives and doers from across industries to connect, share ideas, and spark new opportunities through play.

Now in its second year, PLAY offers an alternative to traditional networking - one rooted in creativity, accessibility, and genuine human connection. Participants are invited to showcase their work, build meaningful relationships, and explore future collaborations in an open, supportive environment.

Attendance is by invitation, with contributors selected for their creative voice and the inspiration they bring to the community. PLAY is brought to life by Lara Norman & Katherine Hudson, alongside a collective of collaborators, and is supported through donations.

There are no rules - bring a part of you.

A kids Playverse will be available, and on-site accommodation can be pre-booked.

Contributors receive a bell tent stay in our Wonderland location.
