Lounge On The Farm is a music festival held annually at Merton Farm, Canterbury, Kent, which attracts thousands of visitors each year. Although there has been a vast increase in the capacity of the event, as well as the amount and quality of the performing acts, organizers insist that they keep the festival ‘non-conformist’ [cite web|url=http://www.kmonline.co.uk/kol08/article/default.asp?article_id=32478 |title=Interview with organizer |accessdate=2008-07-14 |publisher=KM Online] , promoting bands and produce from Kent.
