- **Event Description**: The Big Shakeout - A small festival big on adventure!
 
Big Shakeout is a place to celebrate your summer of adventure: three days in the Peak District National Park, spent doing what you love by day, with entertainment taking over each evening. First-timers and lifelong outdoor people alike, solo adventurers and families side by side.
 
We called it the Big Shakeout back when putting on a festival at all felt like the biggest thing we'd ever done. We've done it a few time now but the festival never got that memo, we have kept it small on purpose.
 
Less than 1,000 people gather for it each year, guests and the Alpkit and Sonder crew all mixed in together, at a weekend that's been running since 2009 and somehow still feels like the best thing we do all year. Small enough that you'll find your friends again in the beer queue, not lose them in a crowd.
 
Fill your day with your favourite activity, or try something new. Dip into the School of Adventure programme if you fancy it, about 1,500 course places across the weekend, everything from your first go at outdoor bouldering to a 108-metre zip wire, no pressure either way. By evening, everyone comes together to refuel with hearty food, a well-stocked Foundation bar, talks, films and live music across two stages.
 
Whether it's your first step outdoors or your ten-thousandth, everyone mixes in together. And that includes the kids, under-16s come free, this is genuinely built for families, not a token tent stuck round the back.

Every ticket supports the Alpkit Foundation, funding grassroots projects that help more people get outside. Have a great weekend. Something good happens because of it too.
