News: Cursus Festival Returns To Dorset On Bank Holiday
Cursus Festival returns to Dorset on bank holiday weekend 22 – 24 May with friendly vibes and fantastic line-up.
The much-loved Cursus Festival returns to Dorset on the bank holiday May 22 – 24, promising another weekend of fantastic live music and good vibes in a rustic farm setting.
Now in its eleventh year, Cursus is an intimate festival with just 500 tickets available. It has gained a reputation as an inclusive, grassroots event suitable for festival first timers and veterans alike. Cursus is family-friendly and one of the few proper music festivals to allow dogs on site.
This year’s live music line-up punches well beyond the size of the event. Headliners Peat & Diesel, Land Of The Giants and Black Water County are joined by the likes of The Hempolics, Skimmity Hitchers, RuMac and Samantics, plus top local acts including Pronghorn and Typical Girls.
Located on Myncen Farm in the beautiful surroundings of Cranborne Chase, Cursus boasts a dedicated DIY Den activity area for kids to make friends and explore different skills. The DJ tent, rural craft demonstrations, camp fire and farm tours make this a diverse and fun experience for old and young alike. Live-in vehicles are welcome as well as tent campers.
Festival Organiser Kev Davis said; “Cursus is a true hidden gem on the festival scene. Everyone will find a warm and friendly welcome here, not to mention an epic soundtrack of original bands and loads of other fun. Try it – we’re sure you’ll love it!” Adult weekend tickets start at just £109 with the first two children going free. 2026 tickets are selling well and previous years have sold out in advance, so early booking is recommended.
