The UK’s Biggest & Longest Running Tribute Festival – Marvellous
The UK's Biggest & Longest Running Tribute Festival
With a chart topping 14 amazing tribute bands, plus many more cover acts, two stages, a huge Big Kids’ Village, roaming entertainers, a massive funfair, silent disco and dozens of food, drink and merchandise traders it’s easy to see why we are the UK’s Biggest and Longest Running Tribute Festival.
Marvellous takes place during the third weekend of July every year, near Reading in Berkshire. Our home is the amazing Dinton Pastures Country Park and we’re situated right next to their picturesque lake, even the sun sets over the back of the main stage ! Join us for some amazing family fun this year, come for the day, or maybe the entire weekend – you can stay overnight onsite in one of our pre-pitched glamping tents, or bring your own tent or motorhome. We’ve even got hot showers and real flushing toilets if you’re staying over.
The entire site is protected by our 24 hour security and we’re proud that families go out of their way every year to tell us how safe, secure, fun and enjoyable their time has been. We’re even in Top Trumps and beat Glastonbury with our “Hotties” rating of 10/10 ! (so make sure you bring your lippy girls !)
