Apply to Join
Free, for independent UK festivals. No fee, no contract, no minimum term.
Who can join
The Collective is for genuinely independent festivals, because that's the whole point of it — if the badge went to everyone it would mean nothing.
- A UK festival, running at least one edition.
- Independent — not owned or majority-controlled by Live Nation, AEG, Superstruct, Global or equivalent.
- Happy to display our logo on your site.
How it works
Email us
Tell us about your festival using the template below. It takes a couple of minutes and there's no form to fill in.
We check
We look at the criteria above and come back to you. If your festival isn't listed with us yet, we'll get it live.
Add the logo
Put the badge in your footer. You get your portal login, your profile goes live, and you're in the next seasonal guide.
Sign up and get started
You'll need an account first — it's how you get into the members' portal afterwards. It takes a minute and there's nothing to pay, now or later.
Already have one? Sign in to apply.
Would rather not do it here? Email us instead and we'll set it up from our end.
The one condition
Our logo on your site as a link back to this page — an image on its own does not count. That is the whole price, and we check it by hand rather than policing it automatically.
What you're missing right now
People are already looking your festival up on UKFG. Type its name to see what that looks like — then imagine it with two features a year behind it.
