Hop Farm Festival is an annual music festival at The Hop Farm Country Park outside Tunbridge Wells, East Sussex, England created by Festival Republic founder, Vince Power. After its first year it was nominated at the UK Festival Awards with “Best New Festival”. It began in 2008 as a 30,000 crowd capacity festival centered around folk and independent music. The aim of the festival was to return “back to basics” with a no sponsorship, no branding, no VIP attitude. Under 12’s, since the festivals creation, have had free entry.
