Following a sell-out weekend in 2025, Loopfest has confirmed its return for 2026.

One of the UK’s biggest multi-venue music festivals, the Shrewsbury-based event will take place on Saturday 2 and Sunday 3 May 2026, with a programme of fringe events on Friday 1 May.

Early bird tickets are now available via ticketloop.co.uk, priced at just £15 for adults, £6 for under-16s, and free for under-5s. Ticket numbers are strictly limited and expected to sell out quickly.

Loopfest 2025, held from 2-4 May, welcomed over 15,0000 attendees across more than 40 venues in Shrewsbury, breaking town centre footfall records once again.

Festival organiser Jamie Smith said: “2025 was a big step up. Loopfest is now one of the largest multi-venue festivals in the UK. We're bringing more acts to Shropshire than ever before – expect major headliners performing alongside our own incredible homegrown talent.”

“The event was a resounding success – the town was alive with music and smiling faces. It's a testament to the hard work of our team that, in just three years, we've grown so rapidly – especially at a time when many festivals are having to close their doors.”

Further details, including first artist announcements, community programme highlights, and accessibility plans, will be released over the coming months.
