Forbidden Forest: What to Expect
Forbidden Forest is a series of unique forest events set deep in the heart of rural Midlands. The popular festival, which is now in its ninth year, is a multiple-staged event featuring some of the world's biggest underground brands and artists from the electronic music scene.
2023 saw the event transform from a two to three day show. Since day one, the Forbidden brand has gone from strength to strength and 2024 looks to take the show to the next level having sold out in just 36 hours. The ninth edition is set to feature incredible, immersive production and the natural setting of Belvoir Castle will become a more prominent feature as organisers look to play on more of the forest's unique scenery. Not only that, the festival has had a new licence approved for this year which allows it to increase capacity to host 22,000 people for the weekend event.
