THE GYPSY LODGE

Hello and welcome to the Gypsy Lodge, 6FootStories' very own swap shop-cum-fortune parlour. The Gypsy Lodge is an original interactive and immersive festival experience, combining storytelling, mysticism, and good old-fashioned haggling. The Lodge has appeared at BoomTown Fair, Electric Picnic, Fling! Festival and at private events. For more details please explore this page, and feel free to contact us with any queries. Enjoy your time at the Gypsy Lodge...

YOU DON'T SWAP, YOU DON'T GET

The Gypsy Lodge swap shop is full of odds and ends, bits and bobs, trinkets and 
wares, bric-a-brac and curios; things to fascinate and enthral. 

Our customers are free to take home anything they fancy, but only if they give us something in return: an object of equal worth say, or a song, a dance, a poem, or a story. The possibilities are endless. 

BUT REMEMBER - we do not accept money, promises, or anything rotten. 
And we have been known to drive a hard bargain...

WE ARE NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR YOUR MISFORTUNE

We are highly experienced spiritualists here at the Lodge. We can read the tarot, the palm and the other, less orthodox, methods of discerning one's fate. Only our boldest customers dare to step into the fortune parlour, to learn what their future holds. 


We bear no responsibility for their misfortune, but we'll graciously accept the credit for any good tidings...

NO ONE LEAVES WITHOUT PEELING A POTATO

All our guests are invited to take a seat in potato corner, where they can make themselves useful by peeling spuds for our tea, or even try their hand at the WORLD FAMOUS POTATO SHY (essentially a coconut shy, but with potatoes) - an entertainment so famous it even made it into this review of Boomtown. 


It's also a place to relax and unwind, sharing stories and songs with Sailor, Blackmouth and the gang. And for the more artistic visitors, there are tools and paint with which to create works of potato art!

    WE WANT YOUR MEMORIES

    Want to see the memories in the jar? Then you've got to give us one of yours! Remember, you don't swap, you don't get. And by sharing your youthful recollections you'll guarantee that the good winds will blow in your favour...
