HereFest is Hereford’s brand new summer festival, built for families who want more than just a day out, and for grown-ups who still know every word to the classics.
Spend the afternoon bouncing, competing, creating and relaxing in the sunshine. Grab food from local vendors. Let the kids run free in a safe, welcoming environment. Catch up with friends. Bring a picnic blanket. Make a day of it.
Then as the sun starts to dip, the atmosphere shifts.
The inflatables are still going. The bar’s in full swing. And the stage comes alive with huge 80s, 90s and party anthems you’ll belt out at the top of your lungs.
No camping. No massive ticket prices. No full weekend commitment.
Just one brilliant summer day and night, right here in Hereford.
