The biggest party ever – How the Castlemorton rave changed festivals forever

The brand new podcast that dives deep into all things ’90s. In May, 1992, Fifty thousand people descended on Castlemorton Common for a week-long party that scandalized Middle England and rewrote the rules of British nightlife. This week, Miranda Sawyer sits down with filmmaker Aaron Trinder, director of Free Party: A Folk History, to dig into the delirious mayhem of Castlemorton, the legal fallout and the cultural shift away from raves and how the fallout changed nightlife culture to this day.  Follow us on:  BlueSky  Instagram  TikTok  Subscribe to our Spotify playlist Buy Miranda’s book Uncommon People: Britpop and Beyond in 20 Songs through our affiliate bookshop and you’ll be helping the podcast by earning us a small commission for every sale.
