RECFEST

Recfest 2026 – Discover Hampshire’s Rising Stars

Hampshire’s festival for emerging music and sports talent returns on May 16th at Fareham Town Stadium.

Recfest isn’t about seeing famous acts – it’s about discovering the next big thing before anyone else does. Families can experience rising stars in music and sport for just £12 per person or £25 for a family of 5.

Unlike traditional festivals, Recfest offers a single-day format (home by bedtime, no camping chaos), extreme affordability, and a lineup curated for discovery rather than celebrity. It’s the event where you’ll tell your mates in 2028: “I saw them at Recfest before they made it big.”

We’re so confident in our lineup, we offer a money-back guarantee – if you don’t vibe with the talent, full refund.

Perfect for families, music enthusiasts, and anyone who values spotting talent early and supporting local emerging artists.
