We are bowled over to announce that PippaFest ’26 raised £19,332 for the Teenage Cancer Trust - which means we have now raised ✨£85,000✨ in Pippa’s memory for the charity 💖

As Pippa’s family, it is hard to put into words what this means 🙏🏻 creating something so positive out of the worst thing that could ever happen to any family makes us burst with pride 🥹

Together we are delivering Pippa’s vision for her ‘living legacy’ - keeping her beautiful spirit alive and helping fund the wonderful team of specialist nurses who never left her side during the darkest moments of our lives 💙🤍❤️

Thank you to everyone who drank our craft beers and ate their way around our different stalls, laughed at our games and bought merch to take home - every pound has truly made a difference 🥂🫶🏻💸 swipe to read a letter of thanks from ❤️‍🩹

Hadley’s kindness, support and enthusiasm for PippaFest really makes planning and putting together the festival so much easier than it might otherwise be! The generosity of lending us the site also allows us to maximise how much we can donate to Teenage Cancer Trust which makes all the difference ❤️💖

Our festival headliner will always be Pippa 💖

Pippa would be so touched so many artists she personally worked with are now performing at her festival, singing next to her name in lights 🥹🫶🏻 especially who as part of his set, played a song he wrote with Pippa - featuring her own top line vocals, which you can here hear 🎤✨

As a gifted singer songwriter she was the strongest supporter of independent artists and her festival is bringing together the most incredible talent 🥹🫶🏻🫶🏾 her beautiful voice, unique creativity and passion for grassroots sounds will never be forgotten 🤍🕊️
