Forest Live is coming to Cannock Chase Forest! 🎤🌲🎸

Businesses and car parks are open as normal until the end of Tuesday 23 June but you may notice extra vehicles, machinery and contractors on site as we set up for the concerts.

On concert days (Wednesday 24 to Sunday 28 June), the car park will be open as usual until midday. After that, we'll need it cleared by 3pm to keep things running safely.

Thanks for bearing with us. It's going to be a brilliant week. And if you want to get your hands on one of the last remaining tickets visit 🔗 www.forestlive.com/cannockchaseforest
