1: STRIKE UP THE BAND 🎷

Let’s turn the fields of Shambala into a living, breathing, marching orchestra! Duelling banjos, the grandest of grand pianos, banging boomboxes, strutting saxophones, twinkly disco balls, glamorous gramophones and the rest! Come as an instrument (bonus points if your costume makes a noise), your musical heroes or iconic album cover. Turn it up to 11,blow your own trumpet and march to the beat of your own drum – there are no second fiddles here!

2. PART OF THE FURNITURE 🛌

We’re often told that Shambala ‘feels like home’. Which is lush – but come on, does it really? For one, home has more couches. More beds. More armchairs, lamps, rugs, teapots, cutlery, vases, wardrobes, hoovers, picture frames, house plants.. can you see where we’re going with this? Let’s turn the fields of Shambala into a proper home – full of roaming,oversized furniture-human hybrids! Live your best lava lamp life! Turn into a telephone! Tick tock, become a grandfather clock! Summon your inner chandelier! BECOME ONE WITH YOUR DUVET!

At a secret location in Northamptonshire, scientists have reported a serious rip in the space time continuum, with creatures and characters both historic and prehistoric pouring in for the party of the centuries. Viking hoardes are sailing across the lake under the watchful bionic eyes of our future robot overlords, Victorian urchins are queuing up for rides on a woolly mammoth, Marie Antoinette is completely off her head and we’re sure we just saw Marilyn Monroe sneaking off into the woods with Black Beard…
