SHARE YOUR MEMORIES! 📸✨

We’re thrilled to be part of First Festival Week 2026, a national campaign celebrating the UK’s legendary independent music festival scene! 💥

At Outcider Festival we’ve always been a launchpad for incredible talent. It’s such a buzz seeing an artist on our stage before they become superstars, but none of that happens without YOU showing up and supporting them from day one 😎

Help us celebrate!

Name and tag any artists you first discovered at Outcider, especially those who you are still following now. Are there any you saw as opening acts that went on to reach the big time?! Is there a special moment from one particular band in the Fernhill barns?? 🎸

We can think of a few, but it's not about us... it's about YOU!

Feel free to share photos, tag your festival friends and let's spread the buzz 🐝

Part of a great initiative from the Association of Independent Festivals (AIF): check out this great new resource (and the Outcider listing!) at https://here.live/discover -festival

So happy to welcome the brilliant Gavin Osborn back to Outcider Festival 2026!!

He'll be playing the midnight 'campfire set' on Friday 31st July, hopefully with his backing band The Comment Section AKA the wonderful John Hare 🤞

A singer-songwriter with six solo albums under his belt, Gavin has spent over 20 years touring the UK, Europe and Australia with his brand of witty storytelling folk songs. Familiar to listeners of BBC 6Music and Radio 4, Gavin’s tours and shows include support slots for the likes of Belle & Sebastian and Frank Turner. A regular at Green Man Festival, Gavin also co-wrote a hit trilogy of storytelling shows with comedian Daniel Kitson and his viral hit ‘Born In The NHS’ was featured on Russell Howard’s Home Time on Sky One.

A personal favourite of the Fuelled By Cider booking team, and a very lovely man too 😊

Make sure you pace yourself until midnight - it'll be worth the effort! 🍻

Aaaand..... CHILL 😎

In amongst the cider-fuelled, p***y madness of Outcider Festival we love to relax and enjoy some laid back folky vibes too! 🎻

Enter our next act, the critically acclaimed St.Fian

Still in their second year, the duo have gone strength to strength on the folk circuit, gaining top slots at many festivals in 2026 and top support slots for the likes of Sound of the Sirens, Mad Dog Mcrea, Reg Meuross and many more.

St. Fian blend trad folk with a their own stories of hope, love , life and the fun and struggles of the world to create music to make laugh, dance, think twice and maybe even shed a little tea.

Grab a drink and a pasty... fall into a comfy wool sack... and enjoy! 🌞
