Adjoa Andoh covered it all in her conversation with and Chine McDonald at Greenbelt: God, acting, cigarettes, cow-milking, motherhood. Plenty of inspiration, provocation, and laughs. Here are a few gems. Listen to the full talk on our site: £3 for this one, or £60 for all 2025 talks. Link in bio.

Every picture tells a story. For example, you might have seen pictures from last weekend’s march in London. They tell a story about – amongst other things – the far-right’s recent co-opting of a version of Christianity.

Stream your heart out. Catch up on 21 shows from the Greenbelt 2025 fields for £35. Available until the end of October. Special discount code for all 2025 ticket buyers and volunteers. Check your inboxes. In partnership with @christianaiduk.bsky.social

At the end of a difficult weekend, Greenbelt trustee @chinemcdonald.bsky.social is “disappointed”. Join her in her disappointment, but also in her determination to stand for compassion, welcome and our common humanity. www.instagram.com/reel/DOlsgLx...

“I think right now is a powerful moment of history, where people are coming together to speak out.” Greenbelt artists Brian Eno and Malak Mattar speak about the 'Together for Palestine' event next Wednesday at Wembley Arena. www.theguardian.com/music/2025/s...

A huge thank you to our brilliant team of volunteer photographers, who spend the whole weekend roaming the fields of Greenbelt capturing the magic as it unfolds, day and night. Official photos will land in a few weeks, but for now here’s a first look at some of the moments they caught this year.

Here’s what a few of you lovely lot had to say about Greenbelt 2025. What did you think? Let us know in the comments, or fill out our post-festival survey. buff.ly/wwTr5lh

Doughnut Economic Circus 2025 is now on tour - with the Battle for the Biosphere, Nature vs Finance - including having massive fun @greenbeltfestival.bsky.social this past weekend, with none other than Brian Eno playing Finance.

That’s a wrap on another @greenbeltfestival.bsky.social! It was an absolute joy to spend a weekend with so many people committed to making the world a better place ✨ A big thank you to everyone who came along to find out more about opening their home to those in need ❤️

Thank you @greenbeltfestival.bsky.social

Three days immersed in a community of people who dare to long for a world that embodies love, compassion, light and hope. Thank you @greenbeltfestival.bsky.social

Well @greenbeltfestival.bsky.social it’s been a blast. Highlights include being half-arsed, unexpected, if fleeting community making elf gauntlets, rest as resistance and fantastic studies and hymn singing, plus a bit of folk music. Fabulous.

As the very last campsite tents come down, what’s left behind is more than clean fields – it’s the love and respect you show for our festival home. Thank you, Greenbelters, for caring for this place – and one another – so beautifully. 🌱 #LeaveNoTrace

Greenbelters you were magnificent this weekend. We hope in the making and the singing and the dancing and the praying and the listening and the absolute Somewhere to Believe In of it all, that your heart is full.

This morning, as we do each year, we came together for an act of communion. To remind ourselves that hope is something we need to keep choosing and practising. And to celebrate the strength of Jesus’ resurrection and the power of God’s promises. You can give online here: buff.ly/ELhruHy

Welcome to the fields Sarah!

We had a fantastic time worshipping together at @greenbeltfestival.bsky.social last night - the #Tenebrae service of light is a very special experience.

Last night was a PARTY. K.O.G brought the energy. And you Greenbelters kept the dancefields alive until the early hours of the morning. Bring on Sunday.

The kids are alright. Not just the kids either. Greenbelters of all ages came together today. Hope is in the making, and we’re making it together in the fields. Let’s do it all again tomorrow!

Okay, hands up. Who's managed to find one of Rachel Ho's gorgeous hidden treasures?

Our Friday headliner @nadineshah was simply sensational last night. As were the rest of you Greenbelters, all day long and well into the night…

Lovely Joust session at @greenbeltfestival.bsky.social. Come at 7pm behind the Skateramp for more video-less gaming fun with Playstation controllers.

At @greenbeltfestival.bsky.social? Join me Sunday 11:30am (online, No Fly Zone) or 8:30pm (Forum) for 100+ years of God on air. From the 1st ever speech broadcast (Luke 2: “Do not be afraid!") to the sermon heard by 1/2 the planet, we'll inform/educate/entertain/equip - we're all broadcasters now.

I went to @greenbeltfestival.bsky.social yesterday to facilitate a workshop on Poetry and Hope, expecting 6 people to turn up. In the end, 76 wonderful poets came to share their skill. I loved every minute & hope they did too! Many thanks to the wonderful organisers and volunteers.🌿

Cheeky monkeys are our speciality! #GB25

We are SO back, baby. Opening day of total dreams. Sunny skies and so many, many highs. What was yours?

Hello to all the Greenbelters making their festival debuts this year! Welcome to the fields - we hope you have the BEST weekend.

Hello to everyone joining us at home. We hope you're enjoying your virtual ticket to the festival and our No Fly Zone livestreams. If you'd like to join us in the field of streams check out noflyzone.greenbelt.org.uk

Welcome home everyone. The sun has begun to shine as you’ve spilled through our gates here. The tents are going up, the flags are waving, reunions are underway, and hope is happening. 📷 Andrew Mackley, Jacob Lowe, Simon Holmes, Ali J

Oh, to be at @greenbeltfestival.bsky.social Sadly, we have to cut our cloth to fit our budget, so for the first time in years we will not be physically there. However, No Fly Zone tickets mean Greenbelt can come to us/you, wherever in the world. noflyzone.greenbelt.org.uk

We can't wait to see you!

The glitter balls are being hoisted. The flags are flying. The vibers are vibing. There’s all the stuff you love. There’s plenty you’ve never seen before. ONE MORE DAY, PEOPLE. PS. Pack a warm hat for the evenings and some sun cream for later in the weekend.

Happy Greenbelt Eve

Must be Joust at @greenbeltfestival.bsky.social time. Come and play?

Greenbelt’s starting to taking shape yet again, in warm summer sunshine that looks set to stay around. How many of these do you recognise?

Remember, if you can’t join us in the fields – you can join us online. We’re livestreaming three full days of ideas, music, worship and comedy. Including daily shows from festival favourites like Harry Baker, Pádraig Ó Tuama and Martyn Jospeh. buff.ly/zbV8VLn

Greetings Little Moon 👋👋👋 See you in six days!! 🎟️ Tickets are available online until midnight on Wednesday – or on the door from Thursday – if you want to join us in Kettering.

The Sunday sun is out – she’s busy keeping your favourite spot at the Jesus Arms warm, ready for your arrival. Greenbelt is coming to life. #FourDaysToGo #GB25

There is just one week to go, people. Right now, our first wave of volunteers are on site at Boughton – making, painting, stitching, dreaming. Building somewhere to believe in and belong to. A home we’ll share again in just seven days. Here's a few pics of what they've been up to today.

Meet Sarah Corbett, our Craftivist-in-Residence for Greenbelt 2025. Ahead of her residency, we sat down to chat about why gentle protest can be so powerful — and how she’ll be weaving it into the Greenbelt fields next weekend, with plenty of ways for you to get involved. youtu.be/8yO7VDbNgrg

Can't wait to go to @greenbeltfestival.bsky.social again where I'll be facilitating a workshop on Poetry and Hope on the 22nd August at 1.30pm in the Village Hall. Hope to see you there. 🌿
