Bedford River Festival | Main Stage 2026It's that time again, when the town comes together for two days for a big celebration of all things Bedford!
We're pleased to be working with Bedford Borough Council to bring another eclectic line up of artists to Bedford River Festival's main stage in Russell Park on Saturday 18th and Sunday 19th July.
The River Festival is the second largest free festival in the UK, second only to Carnival. Held bi-annually, the event shines a light on Bedford's river and town, with a number of community areas and events over the weekend.
As always, we have tried to program a mixture of exciting national touring artists that regularly play major festivals, while giving local artists a chance to play the biggest stage over the weekend.
The line up this year really does cover all the bases and we hope you enjoy discovering something new. We take over the stage from 1pm both days, after the community events in the morning.
Full line up announcing very soon...
Saturday start time: 1pm
Saturday end time: 10.30pm
Sunday start time: 1pm
Sunday finish time: 8pm
