Expect over 50 music acts on six mini stages, farmyard antics and activities, and home-grown food from Jamie’s Farm. All the proceeds from the festival go to the Jamie’s Farm Charity, so you’ll be doing a good deed as you party. Tickets are available online and start at £50 for an adult day pass. cockandbullfestival.co.uk
Following the huge success of this event last year, Timbrell’s Yard in Bradford-on-Avon is bringing back its Gathering for 2018. On the Sunday of the August Bank Holiday, its spacious courtyard will be filled with pop-up bars, music and street food from exec chef Tom Blake, formerly of River Cottage. The fun kicks off at this riverside pub at 4.30pm, and will go on until late. timbrellsyard.com

Promising to make caffeinated dreams come true, The Coffee House Project is the first coffee festival to hit Bristol. Taking over the Passenger Shed, it will involve talks, tastings and workshops, with up to 50 exhibitors contributing to the caffeine-fuelled fun. And it wouldn’t be a Bristol festival without gourmet street food, right? Here it’ll come from the likes of Pinkmans and Swoon. Tickets are available online now, and start from £14. thecoffeehouseproject.co.uk
