After a two-year COVID-19 break, Big Love was back bigger and better than ever, with a move to a brand new site in Usk, Monmouthshire.
Musical highlights in 2022 included D’n’B legend LTJ Bukem, festival favourite Beans on Toast, Cardiff band Afro Cluster and dance pioneers Transglobal Underground.
Other acts included everybody’s new favourites Panic Shack, Welsh-language female band Adwaith, Concrete Junglists, Aleighcia Scott, Hippo Sound System, Mista Trick live, Josh Skints and Showhawk Duo.
Our new Fire Engine Stage hosted some incredible DJs, and 2022 also saw the introduction of our new big top, with some incredible circus performers. The new site includes woodland glades and a late-night disco barn and even an Iron Age hill fort! Not to mention stunning views across the rolling hills at the edge of the Wye Valley Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty.
Check out the 2022 photo galleries Friday, Saturday and Sunday.
