Values
Creativity, Connection, and Celebration, are at the heart of everything we do. And we believe it's all about respect—for yourself, each other, and our beautiful planet.
Creativity
In a world where conformity is valued over creativity, we want to provide a platform that nurtures artistic freedom and pushes the boundaries of creative expression.
Connection
In a world where digital connection so often replaces physical connection, we cherish the depth of connection that comes from the gathering of humans.
Celebration
In a world that can so often feel overloaded, we want to celebrate the very best this beautiful planet and all humanity can achieve in one almighty party where everyone is welcome.
Respect yourself
In a world that can make us doubt our own worth, we want to provide a space for self empowerment, freedom of expression and most importantly self care.
Respect Each Other
In a world that is deeply scarred by the open wounds of racism and prejudice, we want people of all backgrounds, beliefs, ages, gender identities, sexual orientations, abilities and races to know that you belong and we strive to keep you safe in our city.
Respect The Planet
In a world that is burning, we call on our collective humanity to come together to find solutions and care for nature, as she cares for us.
Giving Back
Our Non-Profit Partners

CLIMATE ACTION
South Downs National Park (SDNP)
Boomtown is built on borrowed land. We are committed to supporting the SDNP to achieve its two core objectives:
1. Conserve and enhance the park’s natural beauty, wildlife, and cultural heritage.
2. Promote opportunities for the understanding and enjoyment of the special qualities of the National Park by the public.
Over 55% of you have told us you will be visiting the South Downs National Park as a result of attending Boomtown. This is epic news and we urge you to take care of this precious natural resource, and make sure the only footprints we all leave are on the dancefloor.
CLIMATE ACTION
Ecolibrium
Ecolibrium started life in 2015 as ‘Energy Revolution,’ a festival industry response to COP21 and research shows that travel typically causes up to 80% of a festival's carbon emissions. As a founding festival member, Boomtown continues this important work by keeping climate action and low-carbon travel at the heart of our culture.
Drug Awareness
The Loop
The Loop provide information and advice on drug-related risks, aiming to prevent misuse and educate about potential dangers. They are campaigning hard to regain the ability to provid anonymous drug testing facilities at festivals. We partner year round with The Loop to support their incredible work.
Violence Against Women, Girls and other Vulnerable People
Safer Spaces Now
Safer Spaces Now is the next step to creating equality and safety for all at festivals and events through education, training and providing vital, immediate and specialist support.
They work to prevent and address harassment, discrimination, and violence by providing trained staff and volunteers who promote respectful behaviour using the five D’s of active bystanders. Safer Spaces Now offers support and resources for anyone who feels unsafe or violated during the event. We are passionate about their important work.
