Cornbury Music Festival

Cornbury Music Festival is an annual music festival that takes place in Great Tew Park in Oxfordshire, England.

History

Cornbury Festival was founded by music promoter Hugh Phillimore.

It was originally set up on Robin Cayzer, 3rd Baron Rotherwick’s Oxfordshire estate, Cornbury Park, and has been given the nickname “Poshstock” in national press. The festival moved to Great Tew Park in 2011.
