GLOW FEST

‘A unique experience you will remember for ever.’ Hever Festival audience member 2024

Immersive performances, alfresco dining and dancing, all at this one event to celebrate the Elizabethan estate. This is an exclusive event for a limited audience.

What you will experience

As the sun goes down, gather under the ancient trees for an unforgettable evening of entertainment, feasting and celebration.

Our guides will escort you into the gardens where you will discover the theatrical treasures hidden within the many breathtaking garden ‘rooms’. Leading you from one unexpected, mesmerising performance, to the next as you wander past the charming circular pond, lose yourself among the fragrant roses and gaze at the romantic magnolia garden. Each turn reveals a new wonder and an unexpected performance.

Returning to where you started, music fills the air and you can enjoy the carefully curated street food, raise a glass at our botanical cocktail bar, and soak up the summertime musical vibes as the gardens magic reaches its peak.

This is an unmissable midsummer festival where nature, history, theatre and feasting combine to create pure enchantment.

‘Over many years of attending the festival we have always come away artistically nourished.’
