Summer events Over Farm Gloucester

Summer holidays at Over Farm's Countryside Adventure promise six weeks of non-stop family fun with the return of the Big Summer Blowout from Saturday 18 July until Monday 31 August 2026.

Taking place every day throughout the school holidays, the Big Summer Blowout is packed with live entertainment, foam parties, family activities, animal encounters and exciting special guests, making it one of Gloucestershire's biggest summer attractions for families.

Alongside all the seasonal entertainment, visitors can enjoy Countryside Adventure's popular attractions including tractor trailer rides, quad train rides, the animal trail, jumping pillows, woodland walks, mini golf, footgolf, sandpits, play areas and Rover the Farmer's interactive games throughout the day.

Something different every day

Every visit offers something new, with a rotating programme of live weekday shows including explosive science demonstrations, magic shows, bubbles and balloons, reptile encounters, hula hoop workshops and hands-on craft activities.

Daily foam cannon parties return to cool everyone down, while Rover the Farmer keeps younger visitors entertained with games, dancing and plenty of farmyard fun.
