KIDS
Many of us behind Vintage at Goodwood have kids, and we have it on good authority that the ones who haven’t were once kids themselves.
Vintage at Goodwood goes out of its way to make kids happy so that mum and dad can have a great weekend.
The fair is a proper fair. There are classic toys and games to amuse kids and adults alike.
We know that most kids enjoy art and design at school and throughout Vintage there will be opportunities to get creative.
The crèche will give parents a chance to see if they still have those ‘moves’ and a chance to relive their newlyweds dance...but don’t worry we won’t play Lady in Red...or is it a guilty pleasure?
Show the young uns how to ride a Space Hopper and get your own back for all those defeats on FIFA 10 by thrashing them at Space Invaders.
Some of the camping options are a dream come true for kids and big kids. What is more constructive or bonding than building your own shelter to sleep in the woods? Exciting for kids, a night without sleep for dad? The jury’s out... Whatever Dad gets a hat full of brownie points
Butlins
Butlin's have been past masters of the quintessential English family holiday since the 1940s, and they are celebrating their rich cultural heritage by recreating a Butlin's resort in the heart of Vintage.
Your children will delight in the Butlin's experience just as their parents and grandparents did when they were young.

The Hive at Goodwood will be a magical woodland experience where festival goers are invited into a natural architecture created by Invisible Structures artists. The woodland will be replete with natural architecture, earthworks and artistic installations built into and out-of the natural environment. During the Festival the woodlands will come alive with activity - shelter building, fire making, foraging, instrument making and wild camping - all guided and taught by our 'Ray Mears-style' qualified bushmen. Participants will be able to adventure through this integrated learning environment using their newly learnt survival skills and Children and Adults of all ages will love the night time experience of the Hive Hotel, listeing to music and stories by the campfire, applying survival skills on nightwalks and making new friends in this veritable 'Hive' of creative activity.
