Somerton Music & Arts Festival 2026 – events including a music weekend with local bands performing at our local hostelries, talks, walks and a quiz. The festival culminates with Somerton’s own music festival Somerstock, which will take place at the Recreation Ground on Friday 10th and Saturday 11th July.

The popular Arts Exhibition, which gives local artists the change to exhibit and sell their work, will be back as a prelude to the festival from 23rd to 30th May.

Look out for more events as they are announced!

When the original festival began in 1986, it’s aims were:-

To bring a varied programme of professional entertainment to Somerton.

To provide value for money, by keeping ticket prices as low as possible.

To promote Somerton by investing in a culture which encourages community involvement & enjoyment.

These aims are still true today.
