We Are Love, the intimate festival from specialist music station 1BTN, is back for the second year with four days (and three magical party nights) of excellent music, wellness activities and more, just 20 minutes outside Brighton.
The 1,500-capacity festival is back at the stunning Bentley Farm Estate in East Sussex with a stellar line-up of eclectic music, just as you’d expect from the community station that’s been broadcasting a diverse range of tunes 24/7 since 2015.
The strong live and DJ line-up features the likes of Ron Trent, Mad Professor, Loose Ends, Children of Zeus, Crazy P, Dele Sosimi, Marc Mac, Felix Dickenson, Phil Milson, Nancy Noise, Make A Dance, Hypnotic Brass Ensemble, and more.
But it’s not just about the music. There’s also a large wellness area with hot stone massage, gong baths, wood-fired hot tubs, hot-box sauna, and more; a chill-out tent with yoga classes, talks and a vinyl record fair from Hove’s Capsule Records; a range of food and drink options from artisan vendors; a family area packed with creative activities; and of course lots of love. Let’s not forget the love that’s at the heart of the festival.
Festival and 1BTN founder Mickey Jukes said that “the idea was always to have a festival event that reflects the diversity of music and talent that we have on 1BTN. It really is a passion project and very much a labour of love – and love is ultimately at the heart of it all.”
“I wanted to create a space where our music community can come together and share in the making of wonderful memories, friendships, love and happiness, all underpinned by a super dope musical journey! We Are Love, it’s as simple as that really,” he added.
With three stages, world-class sound systems and plenty of secret spaces to discover among the rolling meadows and mystical woods, it’s definitely a festival to love.
