The 10th Something Wild Festival 2024 has Devon’s best trail running routes at its heart, a wonderful new venue and new routes, taking in the Avon and Salcombe estuaries and some of the best sections of the South West Coast Path

Perched next to the sea, our farm field festival site is in the perfect spot, at the fulcrum of the event routes, with the camping site, at the fulcrum of the race routes. We have moved the festival back to September, so there is little chance of ‘scrub fires’, which have occurred on this coastline in the summer.

Make this an autumn to remember and bring your family.

This year, we are kicking off the festival with a Friday night race, preceded by a cafe and bar, selling beer and non-alcoholic beer provided by Salcombe Brewery.

The Festival site

The farmer has kindly given access to his fields, overlooking the idyllic Hope Cove, and you’ll be hard-pressed to find a better location to wake up to in the southwest. close to ideal swimming spots in Hope Cove, East Soar and Bantham Bay.

This year,we will have a camp village and festival village, which will be clearly separated, to allow flow and easy access.

The campsite is suitable for up to 50 tents, parking and camper vans, as well as and serving as the fulcrum for all our trail events, which is ideal for spectators.

We’ll be offering extra toilet facilities and basic showers, as well as two lovely venues for our speaker’s and music evening.

Unique South West Coast Path Trails

We have lined up some of the best coast routes on the South West Coast path for our night run, 5k, 10k or half marathon, marathon and Summit Wild Ultra as well as kid’s races.

We will kick off the festival with a family-friendly guided run on Friday before the swim run and Hard Rock Coast swim, as well as 10k and 5k events on Saturday and the half marathon, marathon and ultra on Sunday.

On Saturday evening, there will be a fire and music in the main venue.

Forest School

You can drop your kids at forest school from 10am to 12 and 1.30pm to 3.30pm on Saturday and Sunday, with our experienced and qualified forest school leader Ginny, while taking part in an event, or one of our guided wild swims.

To join the forest school, you can buy tickets separately or book weekender tickets (camping and parking).

Entertainment

There’ll be a children’s film night and the cafe and bar open on Friday evening to kick start the weekend. On Saturday there’s a speaker’s evening at the Fisherman’s Reading Rooms and live music.
