Festival World Winter Festival for the Family

Aim

Winter Festival for families to enjoy together in the local area - with live music areas, market, food stalls, selfie centre plus lots more

We are a team of 4 with over 20 years experience in organising & hosting some of the most exclusive events, tours & festivals across the UK & Europe.

Festival World is our new venture in which we hope to host two-three festivals per year for families to enjoy together with the same music & vibez you would find at an over 18's festival with all the great artists & DJs performing live. 

Our most recent achievement was putting on a week full of events including a main festival day with over 2500 attendees who flew to Cyprus for a week of fun, sun, good music & pure vibez. We have worked with some of the most sought after artists from across the globe, most recently having booked the hottest mainstream &  hiphop artists RAE SREMUURD, GUNNA, D BLOCK EUROPE, TION WAYNE, YXNG BANE, NAFE SMALLZ, DAPPY with supporting DJs CHARLIE SLOTH, KENNY ALLSTAR & RAS KWAME alongside some of the biggest names in House Music who perform worldwide DJs ROGER SANCHEZ, MARCO BAILEY & CARNAO BEATS! Plug Nation festival alongside Future movements festival week was a huge success for over 18's so we would like to bring a taste of that to a special winter wonderland style festival held in our local area of Barnet/Southgate in North London for parents to party with their children in unique settings without having to travel in to London itself or any other major city to enjoy something like this. The demand for these type of events are huge and we have the right contacts to make it happen for all the family to enjoy.
