Is Camp Wildfire still open? Yes.
Camp Wildfire is active as of 2026. Current schedule per the operator: 2026: Aug 28-31 and Sep 4-7 (both sold out; 2027 registration open). Sessions have been selling out or running waitlists, so book early rather than waiting for a deal.
Among the adult camps we track in United Kingdom, Camp Wildfire stakes out the classic sleepaway territory. The format is a weekend-length sleepaway, and like every camp in this directory it passes the core test: it is a programmed, sleepover-style camp designed for adults, not a resort weekend wearing a friendship bracelet.
The UK's benchmark adult summer camp, staged in a heritage pine forest 40 minutes from London and once pitched on Dragons' Den. Campers join patrols and choose from 100+ daytime activities, from axe throwing to raft building, before nights of bands, DJs, and comedy. Both 2026 weekends sold out in record time.

The experience
Practical picture: the format is weekend sleepaway camp-festival, two weekends per year. The weekend format keeps the commitment low: arrive Friday-ish, surrender to the schedule, and be back at your desk with stories by Monday or Tuesday. It is adults-only, which matters more than it sounds. The tone of a camp changes completely when every camper chose to be there for themselves.
Cost
Published pricing: roughly £200-350 per weekend. That puts it at the affordable end of the adult camp market, where most all-inclusive weekends land between $400 and $1,000. Confirm what the price actually covers. Camps in this dataset differ on whether lodging, meals, and transport are bundled, and that swings the true cost more than the ticket price does.

The venue is in secret pine forest near Sevenoaks, Kent, United Kingdom, UK. Here is the current timing picture: 2026: Aug 28-31 and Sep 4-7 (both sold out; 2027 registration open).
