Festival
Join the party at the UK's biggest chilli festival. Dance to live Latin music, watch cookery and gardening demonstrations and taste delicious chilli foods 'til your tongue sizzles. Make the most of the family-friendly festival atmosphere and camp onsite with great facilities.
"Live Latin bands and dance demos, plus gardening workshops and a vintage fair mean there's plenty of fun even if your tastes are more korma than Demon Red."
What's on?
More details will be announced soon.
Wake up in the beautiful grounds of West Dean and make a weekend or a mini break of it. Full camping facilities are available throughout the Chilli Fiesta weekend (including great showers and toilets and 24 hour shop). A limited number of pitches are available so early booking is essential, tickets are available for the full weekend (three nights) or for one night (Saturday).
"We came last year and enjoyed it so much, we said let's do it properly and camp next year."
"A weekend away with lots of chillies and dancing, lots of fun!"
Pick your camping zone (on the day you arrive):
In order to responsibly preserve our beautiful parkland, we have now reduced the capacity of caravan and campervan pitches and are therefore unable to offer these to the public for this year's Chilli Fiesta.
We're looking for traders whose products or services will enrich this vibrant event, reflect the worldwide chilli culture and appeal to family festival-goers.
