Big Love Festival 16-19 July 2026, South Wales

Workshops, Wellbeing & Activities

There’s a lot more to Big Love than great music.

For 2026 we’ve got all sorts of fun activities lined up – take a look below!

Wyldwood Willow Weaving

Examples of willow weaving including a suspended chair and baskets.

A variety of short classes where you can learn to make things like bird feeders, fish, trees, dragonflies, hearts, berrypickers, fruit bowls, or even bike baskets!

This enables everyone to get involved in making something regardless of their experience or time available, there is something for everyone! Drop in any time to start.

Breathwork

With Stefan Williams

Join Stef Williams for a transformative Conscious Connected Breathwork Journey — a powerful experience designed to help you release, reset, and reconnect.

This isn’t just an event — it’s a festival of energy, emotion, and awakening.
Through guided breathwork, immersive music, and a deeply supportive space, you’ll be invited to let go of what no longer serves you and open up to clarity, calm, and inner strength.

Expect:
– A safe, heart-led environment
– Deep emotional release & nervous system reset
– Uplifting, festival-like energy with music & community
– A journey inward that stays with you long after

Whether you’re seeking healing, clarity, or simply a moment to breathe again – this is your invitation.

Breathe deeper. Feel more. Become fully present.

Feral Fibres: Felting workshops

With Hannah Kemp

Come and learn the joy of needle felting in our relaxed felting workshop. Using wool you will learn how to Create your own festival horns or ears to wear or bring to life a needle felted animal.

Suitable for all ages and levels.

Jewellery-making workshops

With Blodau Arian

I run a few different eco-friendly jewellery workshops, including, ring making, bangle making and pendant making prices start at £25 and range up to £95.

These are all made with recycled metals and using no power tools only muscle power!

Pottery wheel workshops

With Melanie Made Mud

My pottery wheel workshop enables festival-goers to ‘Have a go’ on the pottery wheel to throw and be proud of making their own pot.

The many people I speak to say a common phrase ‘I’ve always wanted to have a go!’

Our busy lives can prevent this chance for one reason or another but whilst at a festival, festival goers have the perfect opportunity and time to try.

I offer festival goers an upgrade option to have their pots fired, glazed and posted – this is a real bonus as they can then look forward to having a beautiful and functional piece they have made themselves arrive a few weeks later.
