Wilderness Festival in Cornbury Park is well-known as a music festival with a bit more creature comfort than Glasto. Celebs relax to house DJs in immaculate tents put up by Veuve Clicquot and Audi, while a secret 18+ area called The Riddle, new for this year, clearly took its inspiration from the Saltburn birthday party \u2013 lots of places to hide behind trees, a broken bed covered in grass, a Mirabeau van, etc. I loved it there.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
However, it’s also gained a reputation as having one of the best Queer arts programs of any mainstream festival in the UK, thanks in large part to the House of Sublime<\/em>, which provides many of the pinnacle moments of the weekend. With takeovers from iconic LGBTQ+ nightlife hosts MIMIs, Queer House Party, Cocoa Butter Club and Pinky Promise, Wilderness have created a haven for club kids to run riot in a seductive, intimate venue, tucked into a particularly gorgeous bit of the English countryside.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The highlight of the House of Sublime<\/em>\u2019s program is undoubtedly the Haus of Fatale<\/em> cabaret show which takes place twice on the Saturday evening, followed by the accompanying club night, Fatalism. <\/em>Queues for both stretch to the end of the central cricket field (yes, Wilderness has a cricket field), as spots in the audience are so highly sought after.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n
