Listen up ILKLEY!
What's better than being nestled in the stunning Wharfe Valley?
That's right... being surrounded by your loved ones. Tasty food in hand supping on your favourite tipple and taking in all the entertainment that surrounds you while you kick back and relax.
Throw in the fact you're by the river with the Cow & Calf Rocks overlooking you and you're living the dream.
Thanks to your support we're back for our 7TH YEAR in 2026 in this beautiful field we call our home.
As you'll know this event has grown year on year and we're cooking up some new attractions for 2026 (on top of the usual good stuff) such as:
New for 2026:
· Brand New Event Production - Think bolder and brighter (& wackier!)
· Fresh Entertainment - We've been blessed with some incredible entertainers over the years. This year we're taking it up a notch with new world music & entertainers
· New Activities - Ever done 'Banana Jousting'? No me neither but that is very much on the cards
· New Food & Drink Traders - Expect our biggest line up to date with some fresh additions to the line up.
