Celebrating the Nostalgia of Beat generation America. Music, craft, poetry, writing workshops, talks.
The festival
A weekend to honour the rich history of beat generation America and allow you to reminisce on a time of creativity, craft and classic adventures. If you have always felt drawn to the style and stories of the 60s, we offer you the chance to journey back and walk in the shoes of your heroes, to a time where hitting the road was always in search of something new, and the only way to travel was in a classic car.
Join us as we explore the universe, a moment of silence to watch the stars
