Farmer Phil's Festival is a musically diverse annual event that originally started in 1998 in a corner of one of Farmer Phil's fields near Shrewsbury in Shropshire.​

The festival boasts an eclectic mix of acts ranging from ska to classic rock, from dance to acoustic folk and everything in between!​

With the annual event now established as a popular boutique festival, Farmer Phil does not wish for it to grow any further. All future plans are focused on maintaining the extended family atmosphere between our returning festival goers, traders and all of the hard working volunteers who bring the event together year after year.​
