First Artistes Announced for Trowbridge Festival 2026!

We are absolutely delighted to announce the first wave of fantastic artistes set to join us at Trowbridge Festival 2026.

As always, we are committed to showcasing the very best local talent from the Trowbridge area, alongside nationally celebrated artistes, bringing an exciting and diverse programme of live music to the county town of Wiltshire.

Early Tier Weekend Tickets are currently available at the fantastic bargain price of just £120 for the full weekend, including FREE camping. These limited tickets are selling fast and are expected to sell out before the next line-up announcement — so we strongly recommend booking now before the price rises to £135.

Continuing our commitment to young people and families, Child and Teen tickets remain completely FREE, allowing all under-18s to attend when accompanied by a full-paying adult. We believe young audiences are the future of a vibrant and successful Trowbridge Festival and are proud to help make the event accessible for families.
