‘Feltonbury2026’ - The music programme is already full, with numerous returning performers, and new acts, attracted to ‘Feltonbury’. The event continues to grow and mature with more than 65 performing acts spread across 9 venues!! A very busy day for everyone involved – but nothing that we can’t manage!!
Forget about going to Glastonbury!! It’s conceded defeat and won’t be happening this year !! You can enjoy a full Feltonbury weekend, before heading to a TV screen as the England Football team have agreed to delay their World Cup fixture kick-off until 10pm on Saturday 27th June.
Another great weekend of music venues and associated arts trail throughout the villages, including Friday 26th June - ‘Picnic in the Park Evening’ @ ‘The Pant House’ & Saturday 27th June – ‘Music Festival and Arts Trail’.
Venues will include Felton Village Hall, Gallery 45, The Bridge, 29,Main Street, The Northumberland Arms, The Pant House, St Michael's Church - and 'The Plot' is a venue, and absolutely ideal venue for acoustic performances to families with young children and bound to be a great hit. After all, 'The Plot' is what the 'Feltonbury' event is all about - fundraising for the Community Allotment along Recreation Lane, This is an increasingly popular location within the community, and is attracting numerous groups, activities and family groups. Use 'Feltonbury2026' as the 'invitation card' to go and have a look at a fabulous space in our midst. There will be an ad-hoc 'busking spot' in Gallery45, called 'The Shower Block' venue!! Because that's where the showers are!! A bit of fun and a 'good-fun' place to play.
We're delighted that the Art Trail is returning to 'Feltonbury' after a few years absence. This is a considerable enhancement to the whole event, and, following meetings with the organisers, the Art Trail will effectively 'link' the music venues and artists' locations into a continuous thread across Felton and the 'Bridge End' area of West Thirston. A map of music venues and artists locations will be created and published in due course. One of the artists' locations will be St Michael's Church - a fantastic space for 'Feltonbury'.
Put the dates in your diaries Friday 26th June - ‘Picnic in the Park Evening’ @ ‘The Pant House’ – (4.30pm – 9.30pm) & Saturday 27th June – ‘Music Festival and Arts Trail’ – (10am – 9pm).
Donation payments will concentrate on the use of the contactless card reader machines, however, cash payments are possible for those who wish to do so.
