MISSED SOMETHING AT INFEST?

We’re busy updating the Infest online store with a selection of merchandise from Out Of Line Records and HANDS Productions, alongside official Infest Festival merchandise from this year’s event.

So if you spotted something over the weekend and didn't get a chance to pick it up, or you couldn't make the show but fancy some Out Of Line, HANDS or Infest merch, you've got another chance!

We’ve got quite a bit to sort through and add to the store, so please bear with us while we get everything online. We’ll let you know when it’s ready.

Thanks again for supporting Infest, the labels and the artists.

A huge thank you from everyone at Infest, to all those who helped make our 2026 edition such a fantastic event.

Putting the festival together takes months of planning, preparation and hard work. We are enormously grateful to our crew for the skill, commitment and care they bring to every part of the event, from graphic design and technical production to hospitality, accessibility, welfare, box office, merchandise, charity activities, our compères and all the jobs happening behind the scenes.

Thank you to everyone who contributed their time, knowledge, skills and support. There are countless individual contributions that come together to make Infest possible, and we appreciate every one of them.

Thank you to the team at Manchester University Students’ Union for working with us throughout the weekend. Only our second year there, and it already feels like home.

At the heart of Infest is the community that has grown around it: our crew, artists, DJs, traders, friends and supporters, and everyone who joins us each year. Seeing people looking out for one another, making new friends, sharing experiences and enjoying the weekend together is a huge part of why we continue to do this.

We're proud to create an event that supports our scene, gives artists a stage, brings people together, provides a welcoming and supportive environment, and raises money for some very worthwhile causes along the way.

So whether you worked on the festival, volunteered, performed, spoke, traded, bought a ticket, donated, photographed or wrote about the weekend, danced, baked a cake, helped someone out, joined us in remembering absent friends, and contributed to the atmosphere, thank you for being part of Infest 2026.

We couldn't do it without you.

See you back in Manchester, 27–29 August 2027.
