Smoked & Uncut: THE PIG’s legendary garden parties

Stripping things right back from the full Smoked & Uncut festival scene, THE PIG Hotels are bringing back a series of smaller Summer Garden Parties – and you’re invited.  Round up your favourite people and settle in: deck chairs at dawn with espresso martinis, live bands under canvas and a DJ spinning into the evening. We’re welcoming back our much-loved pop-up Potting Shed, alongside Kitchen Garden tours on the hour, every hour.

Expect a stretch tent hosting live music throughout the day, rounded off with a DJ as the sun dips. Well-stocked bars, smoky BBQs, straw bales, a touch of glitter and that unmistakable PIG party spirit – all set in glorious country gardens.  When you need to press pause, wander over to the Garden Oven tucked beside the Kitchen Garden. Pull up a chair, tunes humming from the giant Roberts radio, recharge with a slice of wood-fired pizza and cool off with a refreshing Bitter Orange Spritz.

THE PIG’s Smoked & Uncut Garden Parties are popping up at three PIG hotels from June to August:-

The dates

• THE PIG, New Forest Friday 12th – Sunday 14th June

• THE PIG-at Combe, Devon Friday 10th – Saturday 11th July

• THE PIG-at Bridge Place, Kent Friday 7th – Sunday 9th August

Friday night: Smoked & Uncut kicks off
5:30pm – 10pm – £50 per ticket (festi-food included)

The ultimate Friday night exclusive summer party. Expect live bands and a DJ, cold tipples and plenty of festival-style food – all hosted under a stretch tent with fire pits glowing as the sun goes down. Come to this intimate gathering and stay for the music (and the cocktails).

Saturday: All-day garden party vibes
12pm – 10pm  – £35 adults; £17.50 children

A laid-back garden party across all three PIGs. Wander the kitchen gardens on guided tours, grab a pizza or BBQ plate, dip into one of the many bars or even indulge in the Pop-Up Potting Shed Spa for a little mid-party pampering.  Enjoy the music coming from live bands and a DJ into the night.

Escape the hustle and bustle in our Garden Oven, with tunes from iconic Roberts radio setting the vibe. Kick back and savour a PIG classic – wood-fired pizzas perfectly paired with a refreshing Bitter Orange Spritz.

Sunday: The grand family finale (THE PIG & THE PIG-at Bridge Place only)
12pm – 6pm – £35 adults; £17.50 children

Sunday brings a touch of spectacle for all the family.  Alongside live bands, garden tours, bars, BBQ and pizza, expect circus acts, cabaret performances, children’s games, facepainting and activities.  All-in-all this is likely to be a joyful, slightly eccentric send-off to the weekend.

From golden-hour cocktails to wood-fired food, Smoked & Uncut is everything The PIG does best – relaxed, generous and gloriously fun.
