Nozstock The Hidden Valley to host its final edition in 2024

By Issy Packer  Friday Dec 8, 2023

One of the country’s longest running events, Nozstock: The Hidden Valley is a family run independent festival nestled in the rolling Herefordshire countryside on a fully working family farm.

The festival celebrated their 25th anniversary earlier this year, with artists such as Fat Freddy’s Drop, The Wailers, Shy FX, Grandmaster Flash and Bristol favourites MC Gardna and Eva Lazarus on the lineup.

The event company announced earlier this week that the 2024 edition will be their final ever edition.

Taking place on 18 to 21 July and returning to the beloved Rowden Paddocks in Herefordshire, the final festival promises a lineup of some of their past favourites alongside exciting additions.

On the sad news, creative director Ella Nosworthy said: “It’s the end of an era and it’s really sad that the festival has to come to an end. But sadly, with the economic climate as it is, we feel we have no choice.

“Nozstock has been a huge part of my family’s life for 26 years, organizing a festival as a family has been one of the most brilliant experiences that none of us will ever forget.

“The future of the farm is different but no less exciting. The team are currently planning a series of smaller events for 2025 – with a different focus. We can’t wait to see what the future brings and we will share more details with you all soon.”
