Yes we'll be back, soon, hopefully....

UPDATE - The Upfest Crew are still in planning stages for a possible event in 2021 - Our initial hopes for a full festival at the beginning of June are now very unlikely. Please bare with us whilst we work with our partners on what is possible and when. We hope to have more information available for you in early April. We appreciate the continued support being shown over recent weeks. Many Thanks the Upfest Crew.

Artists who were successful in being allocated a space in 2020 will be given first refusal on returning to the festival this year. Further information for artists is available on out FAQ page here.
