If you live in or around Frome, you’re probably used to the summer buzz of having Worthy Farm right down the road.
However, 2026 is officially a fallow year, the fields are taking a well-deserved break, the cows have reclaimed the land, and the festival team is taking a breather until 2027.
Luckily, the UK festival circuit is packed with alternatives. Here are a few fantastic options to fill that festival-sized void:
🎭 Frome Festival (3-12 July): Right in town with comedy, music, arts, talks and street events. This is your most local “festival season takeover”.
🎪 Boomtown Fair, Hampshire (12-16 August): Want something immersive? Boomtown turns the Hampshire countryside into a living, breathing theatrical city with mind-blowing stage designs and a huge multi-genre line-up.
🌊 Boardmasters, Cornwall (5-9 August): If you fancy trading the Somerset hills for the Cornish coast, this combines a massive music festival with world-class surfing right on the beach.
If you are taking this year off as well, store your festival gear with us in Frome. New customers get 50% off*, free reservations. No security deposit needed.🎒
