WOMAD Festival

25/08/2026

Friends, we’re still glowing from WOMAD 2026.

From the first arrivals at Neston Park to the last notes echoing across the valley. Thank you for bringing WOMAD to life with such generosity, curiosity and openness.

We would like to ask a small favour. We have put together a survey (linked below & in the links section on our main page), and we would really appreciate it if you could take a little time to share your WOMAD 2026 experience with us.

It’s one of the most valuable ways that you can help us protect what makes WOMAD distinct while giving it the strength to evolve. Help us shape WOMAD for the better.

Thank you ❤️

Postcards are here, and pre-sale is sold out. 🌻

We genuinely can’t believe it.

After 24 months away, watching us all convene together at Neston Park was a massive achievement, and that’s all thanks to you and your trust in us. 💚

We couldn’t have asked for a better crowd to start our new home with.

To be able to announce our return this early as a fiercely independent music festival, and be shown the amount of love that we have, is something that we will all hold on to in the year to come.

Through these postcards we can relive some of the moments captured last weekend, from the decor built by hand to the wellness space where we recharged from the previous days. What a beautiful time shared.

And the best part - we can do it all again next year!

If you missed out on pre-sale, join the waitlist linked below or sign up to the newsletter on our website.

With love,

The WOMAD Team ❤️

30,000 kettles & 120,000 cups of tea. ☕️

This year marked a genuine milestone in WOMAD’s sustainability story. Grid Faeries x Ecotricity brought 100% renewable battery power to the World Stage, topped up on-site by solar panels and wind turbines. ✅

To put the numbers in perspective: the battery setup that powered the weekend’s biggest performances holds enough capacity to run 2,800 homes for an hour, and displaced over 1,200 litres of diesel across the festival. That’s worth roughly 30,000 kettle boils and 120,000 cups of tea.

A huge thank you to Grid Faeries x Ecotricity for helping power the magic, their work is a big part of what let WOMAD 2026 run the way it did! Here’s to another round of doing this the right way! 💚

What a weekend… 2027? ❤️

Thank you to everyone who joined us in the fields at Neston Park for WOMAD 2026 - for showing up with open hearts and open minds, for the new friendships made, for dancing under the summer sky, and for falling in love with artists and traditions from all corners of the globe.

This year was extra special as we brought our new site to life for the first time, and your feedback has meant everything.

We are really pleased to announce that presale for WOMAD 2027 launches this week. Sign up to the waitlist now for first access. (Follow the link in the comments)

See you in the fields again next year 💫

As the evening begins to descend on Neston Park, we’re heading into the final stretch of WOMAD 2026. 🎪

This weekend, thousands of you turned a field in Wiltshire into a meeting point for the world, dancing to sounds from every continent, whilst sharing food, stories, and thoughts. 🍃

Four days that proved, once again, why this festival exists.

Tonight, the lights come up, the last sets begin, and we move together into the evening.

Thank you for being here. Thank you for making our new home so special. Let’s make this evening one to remember. 💚

Final day at Neston Park. ☀️

One more lineup. One more sunset. One more dance.

Sunday brings WOMAD 2026 to a close with a full day of music, workshops, and talks across our stages at Neston Park.

However you’ve spent your weekend - dancing, discovering, resting under a tree with the sounds of the festival drifting towards you - let’s go out on a high ❤️

Make it count. See you in the fields. 💫

The wheels are moving and the night is young!

From the dance space with NTS, the amazing Mohammad Reza Mortazavi and the lively dance workshops in Rhythm and Rhyme, to the more intimate moments such as Taste the World, the haze before the sun sets and the flags moving in the breeze. What’s been your favourite thing so far?

Check out the highlights from Friday!

Day two at WOMAD was an absolute banger 💥.
I think it is safe to say we are well and truly settled into our new Neston Park home; you’ve all got your bearings and are reminding us why we love what we do.
