What’s on at BunkFest 2026?

A special King’s Award celebration!

We all know about the great music, food from all over the world, the best British beer, Morris dancing, magical musical river cruises, and heritage trains from Cholsey & Wallingford Railway, not to mention more fringe venues and acts than you can shake a stick at, and this year is an extra a special celebration for all the amazing volunteers who have been recognised for their incredible efforts to make BunkFest truly unique! The Kings Award for Voluntary Service will be presented by His Majesty's Lord-Lieutenant of Oxfordshire!

Not only that, there’s also too much to fit in one post for kids, for teenagers, and grown-ups. With apologies to those awesome bands, acts, traders, organisations, venues, and events not mentioned here; full details are in the very large and great value programme, which will be available in August throughout town; more details to follow.
