Secret Garden Party was one of the UK Top Festivals attracting a diverse set of the world's top DJs and artists which took place in Abbots Ripton near Huntingdon in England. The festival was launched by Fred Fellowes and James Whewell in 2004 as an alternative to the established mainstream music festivals.
Since its inception, the festival has increased in popularity and size and has grown from one stage and 1,000 visitors in 2004 to more than 15 stages and 26,000 revellers in 2011. After 15 years in March 2017, it was announced that the 2017 edition would be the last.
In a curated Facebook post, the organizers conveyed the message to the fans saying,
“The Secret Garden Party closed its doors because it was the right time to do so, but times have certainly changed. Are you still out there? The clock's ticking: www.secretgardenparty.com”
Now the hints are out there, many festival fiends are crossing their fingers that Cambridgeshire's worst kept secret is back after its four-year absence. Fans went absolutely crazy writing, "We're back baby" and "OMG guys it's really happening."
The 'party' has seen performances from acts ranging from Ed Sheeran to Faithless to Clean Bandit, with Prince Harry attending as a guest in 2014. Some of the top DJs who played at the party include, Florence + the Machine, Gorillaz, Clean Bandit, Years & Years, Public Enemy, etc.
