Brentwood best mates are putting on music festival ZENfest for the third time in 2021.
ZENfest was born in 2018, when friends Stefan Poelman and Sam Cottrell, both 25, decided to put on a party in Sam s back garden to celebrate a year of their clothing brand, ZEN Apparel.

Dubbing their party Zenro after the famous Elrow festival, the pair decided maybe they were quite good at throwing a bash.
The first ZENfest had 250 people in a field in High Ongar, the second had 1,000 and now the duo hope to smash the 3,000 mark with a new event planned for September in Kelvedon Hall.
