Bearded Theory is a multi-award winning creative and performing arts festival set in the beautiful grounds of Catton Park, bordering the three counties of West Midlands, South Derbyshire and Staffordshire and only 2 hours away for half of the UK’s population.

Bearded Theory won Line-up of the Year at the UK Festival Awards 2024 as well as making the shortlist for Festival of the Year at the Music Week Awards in 2024 and 2025, and winning Promoter of the Year at the UK Festival Awards in 2023. The festival has also been recognised in industry awards throughout its 15+ year history as a standout event for families, and acknowledged as the perfect way to kick off the festival season in May.
