The county’s biggest celebration of music and arts returns for another big bash with a lineup of handpicked artists from a healthy mix of genres to keep everyone happy. 

Run by a team dedicated and volunteers, the fest continues to host an annual gathering where both huge artists and up-and-comers have a chance to shine and keep attendees dancing from start to finish. 

In 2023, Solfest welcomed performances from a variety of artists including The Libertines, Ocean Colour Scene, De La Soul, Wilkinson, Hollie Cook, Mollie Collins, Peter Hook & The Light, and more. Alongside the tunes, the independent festival brought kite displays, a circus, a funfair, a healing area, workshops, art, and a kid's arena to keep everyone young and old buzzing in between catching their favourite artists. 

With 2024’s edition being the festival's 20th anniversary, it’s sure to be a big one. Secure your tickets now a the bottom of this page.
