State Fayre 2026 brings Americana and more to Hylands Park, Chelmsford

  • Google Calendar ICS

Update 10th February 2026: With Neil Young cancelling all of his European and UK dates for 2026, the folks at State Fair have acted quickly to welcome Alanis Morissette as the new headliner for the Saturday night of the festival, with Skunk Anansie also added to up the rock quota at State Fayre 2026.

State Fayre 2026 is already looking like the place to be this summer with an impressive line-up of big hitters and new, upcoming names converging on Hylands Park in Chelmsford on June 26-28th for a long weekend of music and barbecue. Taking inspiration from that most quintessentially American institution, the State Fair, 30,000 people are expected to attend sets by headliners: Kings of Leon, Neil Young, and The Lumineers. If that wasn’t enough to entice you, new additions to the line-up include Jack Savoretti, Orville Peck, Molly Tuttle, Razorlight and Elles Bailey joining The Black Crowes, Kip Moore, Amble, KT Tunstall and many, many more. It’s a bit like someone stole my record collection and turned it into a music festival, with barbecue. More follows, including all the artist and ticket info you’ll need to know:

Jenny Don't and the Spurs - April 2023 UK tour

  • Google Calendar ICS

Jenny Don’t and the Spurs will bring their brand of rabble-rousing alt/outlaw country to the UK in April 2023. The dates include two London shows, a spot on the bill at the Ramblin’ Roots Revue in High Wycombe and are in support of their recently released ‘Fire On The Ridge’ album. The band might have roots in a string of punk bands, but ‘Fire On The Ridge’ is the perfect mix of rock n’ roll and western twang, and with over 500 shows under their belts, the live dates should be very cool.
