Tuesday, 9 May 2023 01:00

Spring has sprung, and the final tickets are flying out for Cursus Cider & Music
Festival on May 26th - 28th bank holiday weekend.

Weekend and day tickets are available in small numbers, with big discounts for
children. Tent camping is included for all tickets, with live-in vehicle pitches available
for an extra charge.

Now in its eighth year, Cursus is a small festival with a big reputation for original live
music and a grassroots, family-friendly atmosphere.

This year's festival boasts an impressive line-up of established acts, including Skinny
Lister, The Longest Johns, Imperial Leisure, The Dreadnoughts, Sound Of The
Sirens and Skimmity Hitchers, with an exciting mix of other local, national and
international acts are filling the bill.

Located on Myncen Farm, the home of Cranborne Chase Cider, in the beautiful
surroundings of rural Dorset, Cursus offers an inclusive and intimate experience with
a capacity of just 500 people.

It is family-friendly, with a dedicated DIY Den activity area for kids, emphasising meeting new people in a safe and fun environment. Other attractions include a communal campfire, Tuk Tuk Safari, rural craft demonstrations, DJ tent, bar and locally sourced food options.

Cursus falls on the bank holiday weekend and leads into the school half term holiday, making the festival an even more attractive option for those with younger festival-goers.

Adult weekend tickets from £89, day tickets from £39. Children's tickets for just £5.
