What a glorious start to the day! A walk along the river in Bellingham is a must for festival goers...either direction is stunning. 💚💙

Our 2026 line up is now complete! We can't wait to welcome all these wonderful musicians to BAAFest in September. For those of you coming along - you are in for a treat....for those still deciding...tickets still up for grabs. 😉

Back in February we posted a video of our BAAFest Jinglers singing a snippet of our 2026 jingle. They were very good indeed and really captured the essence of it! 👏👏👏
We also promised to share the full length song, which takes a slightly unexpected turn in the middle. 🎶
Please have a listen and to those coming along, start practising...we WILL be singing this in September! 😁😁

Last chance for Early Bird tickets folks!

We only have 20 tickets left for our Thursday Night concert on September 3rd with the mighty Brooks Williams and Aaron Catlow! Numbers are limited for this one as it's held in our smaller indoor venue.
Grab an Early Bird ticket for the whole BAAFest event before March 1st! (September 3rd-6th)
If camping's not your thing, then why not do BAAFest in style and book an on-site luxury lodge at Brown Rigg Lodges. (only one remaining) 😉

so yesterday we shared a little teaser of our 2026 jingle...now for the finished product courtesy of Landermason!! Have a listen and get sharing! Hopefully by September you'll know all the words and we can put together a mass performance of the song on stage! 😁😃

This year's festival jingle composed by Fiona combines folk, gospel and lots of BAA's! It was fun to record....hope you enjoy listening.
