About the Show

We are a small but ever-growing unique festival based on the Isle of Man which started out in 2010. Our mission is to give the public what they really want in a music festival and in doing so, promote the wonderful local talent we have here on the Island, support local business and local charities.

The dates of our event are always centered around the Island’s Tynwald celebrations and the name is actually a nod to the garden party that is held annually by the Island’s Liuetenant Governor who is the Queen’s representative on the Isle of Man.

The event is held in Begoade Fields, Onchan which is just outside the main village and not far from the Island’s capital Douglas.
