South West England Music Festivals 2026
The South West is the undisputed heartland of British festival culture. Glastonbury, held on Worthy Farm in Somerset since 1970, is the world's most famous music festival and the spiritual centre of the UK's outdoor event scene. But the region's story goes far deeper — Boardmasters in Newquay fuses surf culture with live music against an Atlantic backdrop, while Bristol, Bath and Exeter's thriving independent music scenes generate a constant stream of urban festivals throughout the year. Cornwall's dramatic coastline, Devon's green valleys and Somerset's ancient landscape make the South West home to some of the UK's most atmospheric outdoor events, from intimate coastal gatherings to massive multi-stage celebrations attended by tens of thousands.
