Great British Farm-Fest moves to Newbury Showground for 2027

bbc.co.uk

The Great British Farm-Fest, a farming and music festival fronted by Jeremy Clarkson, will move to Newbury Showground in Berkshire for its second event from 29 to 31 May 2027. The inaugural event, held in May at Stoneleigh Park in Warwickshire, attracted over 50,000 visitors and featured more than 400 stalls, 12 arenas, performances from Blur and 10cc, and appearances from Clarkson's Farm cast members. Festival director Chris Hughes said the event aimed to spotlight "ordinary farmers" alongside famous names. Some traders at the first event left early after failing to recover costs, though organisers said only a "handful" of the 400 exhibitors departed. Clarkson's brands, including Diddly Squat Farm Shop and Hawkstone beer, are associated with the festival.
