Where It All Began

Where It All Began is a new, collaborative not-for-profit festival built to secure the future of independent grassroots music, venues and festivals.

After 25 years championing grassroots culture through Chai Wallahs, we’ve reached a breaking point, and so has the live music scene. Venues are closing, independent festivals are disappearing, and something vital is being lost.

So we’re doing something about it.

Expect multiple unique stages including Chai Wallahs, Secret Garden Party’s Where The Wild Things Are, and takeovers from some of the UK’s finest independent venues and festivals.

All good things come together.
