Return to Haven – all survivors welcome

Haven has been the only continuous U.K.  Post Apoc event to happen after the outbreak of Covid. We have had a fantastic time at each event and are delighted to be looking forward to Haven 7.

Haven is not just an event you come along to “consume”. Our ethos is about everyone contributing to the atmosphere and feel of the event as well as generating ideas and features. Some of our best and most enjoyable features have been the creation of individuals and tribes. Don’t come along just to be entertained by the organisers. Bring your input to help create the legend. Join in the group discussion in advance and help us to make Haven a truly special place and series of gatherings.

Our site “The Farm” is set in sleepy Shropshire. We have ample camping. Toilet facilities. Paid showers (£1) A large INDOOR space with stage and best of all friendly creative landowners who want us to enjoy the site. The site is well enough away from civilisation for us to enjoy our immersion but also reasonably close to the Hack Green Nuclear Bunker where the road run is projected to run to. Admission to the bunker for a tour can be arranged at an additional fee.

Continuing with our overarching storyline our next event is Haven 7 – Decompression.  We have survived the ending and life is becoming more bearable. Decompression means leaving the trials and tribulations behind so the tribes are again gathering to celebrate life, trade and socialise. Haven truly is a place of safety. We are welcoming and inclusive with a fundamental rule – don’t be a d*ck. A true escape from the pressures of modern life. “Ferals” and Juniors are particularly welcome. Sorry though, we are a working farm so pets are not able to join you at Haven.

We know how much Haven goers love outfits and dressing to impress.  We have themes for our evening features to facilitate this. Friday evening we are going with our Post Apoc “Dress to Impress” evening  particularly s we look forward to the new Mad Max movie. Saturday is our hugely popular cyberpunk night with the Burn Outs. Partying at the end of the world has become an essential part of the Haven experience in our indoor space The Mushroom Lounge.

Of course you can simply continue to wear your post apoc outfits. Theme costumes are optional but a lot of fun. Bring your own food and drink or preorder from The Winchester with their unique post Apoc delivery service Apocaroo! Feel free to decorate your space and help create a visual feast.

Haven is an immersive weekend. Everyone attending must be dressed in post apocalyptic style. Themed camps and tents etc will be sited closer to the main hub and Bartertown. Regular camping in the next door field and quiet camping closer to the site boundary. Everyone is welcome to barter for goods with one another.

Weekend wristbands (gummi type which are becoming collectables in their own right) are £35 for the weekend inclusive of camping etc. Heck that’s less than you might spend just to camp never mind having a whole weekend of stuff going on. If you are bringing a gas guzzler (suitably PA’d car, buggy, motorcycle, van, or truck) you can send the organisers a picture on social media for approval. Prearranged vehicles will receive £10 at the event as a donation towards your fuel.   Kids at nursery or primary school are free. 12s-16s are £15.

“The Winchester” offers very reasonably priced food and drink over the weekend but you are also welcome to bring your own as well as providing Apocaroo, the Apocalypse’s first ever food delivery service.  At Haven 7 there is a brand new opportunity planned.  A mass Sunday lunch before you head home. Aimed for 1pm it allows you to pack your camp before or after lunch easy to head home.  You can bring your own food to the meal but Apocaroo offers meat and veggie lunch as a preorder for £10 which you can purchase here.  Check social media too as the Winchester offers pre order facilities for evening meals on Friday and Saturday too.  It’s nice to know where your next meal is coming from.
