About KITE Festival 2023
KITE is a new festival of music and ideas that takes place at Kirtlington Park in Kidlington, just north of Oxford city. KITE Festival 2023, the second edition, will take place from 09 to 11 June 2023.
Music
Think era-defining icons, contemporary stars and emerging talent driving the music scene forward.
A bold line up presented across four stages. Focused on alternative music drawing from indie, folk, soul and musical traditions from around the world. Music to make you dance, to help you think and lose yourself in the moment. From intimate shows allowing you to get up close and personal with artists to open arenas where the biggest acts in the world can spread their wings.
Ideas
Think concepts big and small and the spaces to explore them.
There will be talk about the major forces shaping the world we live in, today and in the future. Together, you’ll explore answers to big questions relating to power, our planet, technology, identity, living and culture. In-depth interviews and keynotes will sit side by side with discussions and debates where you, the audience, get to have your say.
Food and drink
Follow your nose and treat yourself to some delicious street food. Sweet and savoury, meaty, gluten and dairy free, vegan and vegetarian options from all around the world. Soak up the atmosphere and get stuck in.
Camping
Kirtlington Park is KITE’s home, and it’ll become yours too for the weekend. Pitch your own tent (or have one ready pitched for you), and make yourself at home. Campervans and live-in vehicles are welcome at KITE – if you’re lucky enough to have one.
