# Event Details - **Event Name**: Lil Giant Fest - **Event Start and End Date**: Fri, 14 Aug, 2026 at 12:00 pm – Sun, 16 Aug, 2026 at 06:00 pm (+01:00) - **Event Description**: About the Festival Get ready for an unforgettable weekend escape filled with electrifying live music, incredible food, outdoor adventure, and the simple joy of camping — all included in your ticket. We’ve struck gold with our location: Cerne Abbas Brewery, nestled deep in the rolling chalk hills of the beautiful Cerne Valley. Whether you’re a seasoned festival-goer or pitching a tent for the very first time, this family-friendly celebration is packed with magic for all ages. Come and let your inner wild child roam free. With just 500 guests in total (adults and kids), this is an intimate, laid-back gathering beneath the South Coast stars. Think switching off, pitching up, dancing barefoot, sharing stories, and soaking up the atmosphere from Friday right through to Sunday night. The Music Expect a seriously good soundtrack all weekend long. From some of the best DJs on the South Coast spinning 90s bangers and beatbox funk, to spoken-word poetry and groove-heavy 70s funk, the music is as varied as it is vibrant. Friday and Saturday nights are made for dancing — from The Smiths tribute band to Aretha Franklin–inspired soul, incredible live bands, feel-good energy, and moments you’ll still be talking about long after the tents come down. On Sunday, the pace softens. Kids’ school-disco vibes give way to yoga sessions, gong baths, and drum circles, all set against sweeping countryside views — the perfect way to wind down, reconnect, and recharge. Food & Drink Set among the chalky hills of the Cerne Valley, the Brewery is no ordinary festival bar. This is the original home of British brewing, with roots stretching back over a thousand years. Brewing began here in 987, founded by Æthelmær the Stout and Benedictine monks. It has survived Viking raids, royal upheaval, and centuries of history — and now it’s fuelling one very special weekend. Expect real ale brewed on site, alongside a mouth-watering lineup of local meats, vegan delights, and classic festival favourites. Whether you’re refuelling after a day of dancing or settling in for a cosy evening by your tent, there’s something delicious waiting for you. Activities There’s loads to dive into, whatever your age. This is a playground for all generations, built around play, creativity, connection, and good times. Get hands-on with bushcraft sessions, jump into family games, cheer on the talent show, and keep the kids buzzing with dedicated activities. Balance it all out with wellbeing experiences like yoga and sound baths, or wander through stalls hosted by eclectic local traders offering everything from clothing and crafts to unique handmade treasures. Come curious. Leave inspired. And probably already planning next year. - **Event URL**: https://allevents.in/dorchester/lil-giant-fest/200029624778938 - **Event Categories**: festivals, music, entertainment, kids, trips-adventures, health-wellness, parties, live-music, art, literary-art, camping, yoga, music-festivals, spoken-word - **Interested Audience**: - total_interested_count: 267 ## Ticket Details ## Event venue details - **city**: Dorchester - **state**: EN - **country**: United Kingdom - **location**: Cerne Abbas Brewery - **lat**: 50.803817921211 - **long**: -2.4771080049387 - **full address**: Cerne Abbas Brewery, Dorchester, United Kingdom ## Event gallery - **Alt text**: Lil Giant Fest - **Image URL**: https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events10/banners/6eb5115458e664eb1768cd55d1bd80e1e9a967c1aedcd482a21318ae3e8c5a7c-rimg-w674-h354-dc66d5de-gmir?v=1775930639 ## FAQs - **Q**: When and where is Lil Giant Fest being held? - **A:** Lil Giant Fest takes place on Fri, 14 Aug, 2026 at 12:00 pm to Sun, 16 Aug, 2026 at 06:00 pm at Cerne Abbas Brewery, Dorchester, United Kingdom. - **Q**: Who is organizing Lil Giant Fest ? - **A:** Lil Giant Fest is organized by South Coast Family Events.. - **Q**: Who is this event for?
