Events and Inspiration on Show at The Den at Four Acre Open Day
An open day at The Den at Four Acre is set to offer visitors a chance to experience one of north Cumbria’s most distinctive countryside event venues, with organisers promising an afternoon full of inspiration, entertainment, and ideas for future celebrations.
The event, taking place on Sunday 17 May from 1pm to 4pm, will open its doors to couples, families, and anyone interested in hosting weddings or special occasions at the Kirkbride-based venue near Wigton. Guests will be welcomed with a complimentary cocktail on arrival before being invited to explore the site’s festival-style tipi structures, landscaped gardens, and event spaces.
Throughout the afternoon, visitors will be able to take guided tours of the venue and speak directly with the team behind The Den, who will be on hand to explain how the space can be adapted for weddings, parties, and private celebrations. The venue is known for its relaxed, countryside festival atmosphere combined with flexible event options.
A range of local suppliers will also be attending the open day, offering inspiration across music, catering, entertainment, and décor. Live performances are planned during the event, including violin music and DJ sets, creating a lively but relaxed festival-style atmosphere designed to reflect the venue’s signature style.
Organisers say the event is aimed at helping visitors visualise how their own celebrations could look at the venue, with everything from garden games to styled displays showing the possibilities available. The open day will also showcase the venue’s outdoor ceremony area and social spaces, which are regularly used for weddings and community events.
The Den at Four Acre has built a reputation for offering a flexible “blank canvas” approach, allowing couples and event organisers to bring in their own catering, entertainment, and personal touches, while the venue provides essential infrastructure such as tipis, lighting, seating, and facilities.
Organisers are encouraging anyone with an interest in countryside weddings or alternative event spaces to attend, describing the day as a relaxed opportunity to explore ideas without pressure or obligation.
With its combination of live entertainment, supplier showcases, and guided tours, the open day aims to highlight why The Den at Four Acre continues to attract attention as one of Cumbria’s more unique event destinations.
