ORGANISERS of Valley Fest have confirmed the festival will return in 2026, with plans for a weekend of music, food and countryside events overlooking Chew Valley Lake.

Set to take place from Thursday, July 31, to Sunday, August 2, the festival will return with music, feasting and community events, celebrating its connection to the land and farming heritage.

Festival founder and organic farmer Luke Hasell said: “I can’t wait to welcome everyone back to the land in 2026. We’re celebrating everything the land gives us, it’s a party with purpose, rooted in soil, soul and joy. We’re going back to our roots and bringing back what people know and love about Valley Fest.”

With a nod to its farmyard setting, the 2026 edition will continue the festival’s tradition of playful themes. While organisers have not yet confirmed the official line-up, it is expected to be announced in early 2026.

Attendees can take part in activities such as dancing, wellbeing sessions by the lake, and meals prepared over open fires, providing a weekend of music, food, and outdoor experiences.

Camping at the festival includes a range of options, from standard pitches for those bringing their own tents to fully furnished bell tents in silver (bring your own bedding) or gold (bedding included) categories, accommodating two to five people.

A limited number of Airstream units are also available, offering two- or four-berth accommodation. All glamping options are situated close to the main festival areas, though availability will be limited, and early booking is recommended to avoid disappointment.
