Stages
Northern Green Gathering has four stages, all powered by off-grid renewable energy sources. Here is some basic info to get you started, with line-up updates coming soon.
Main Stage
This is the place to catch the main acts and grab a pint at the NGG Bar. Dance your socks off to an eclectic mix of folk, rock, punk, ska, and a host of weird and wonderful points in-between.
Reaction Bike-Power
Expect big sounds from the Reaction Bike-Power dance tent. This is a truly people powered stage featuring the mighty Reaction Sound System.
The speakers are 100% people powered using 8 bike generators pedalled by YOU! The cyclists have to work together to keep power levels high – the harder you pedal the louder it gets! Reaction use their custom built solar rig to power the lights and keep the decks spinning, resulting in fossil fuel free, full eco-vibes.
This year they have expanded their horizons and as well as the customary reggae, dub and jungle from the Reaction Crew, they’ve invited a selection of their pals to bring you funk, folk, afrobeat and disco – combining to give you some serious aural pleasure.
Creative Intentions Acoustic Cafe
The Creative Intentions Acoustic Cafe is a pop-up community, a place to play and to be inspired, to gather and connect. Grab a cuppa and experience some wonderful folk performances from the Derbyshire area and beyond.
The Soap Box
This new addition to the Campaigns Area is host to a variety of inspiring speakers, poets and jam sessions. From talks on politics, environment and social justice to anarchist poetry and impromptu jams. The open mic and jam sessions fill up pretty quickly, so make sure to get your name on the board as soon as you arrive!
