One of the UK’s biggest multi-venue music festivals, the Shrewsbury-based event will take place on Saturday, May 2, and Sunday, May 3, next year, with a programme of fringe events on the preceding Friday.
This year, Loopfest 2025, held from May 2 to 4, welcomed over 15,000 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.”

Jamie added: “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.”

Early bird tickets for its 2026 return are now available via the official website, 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.
Further details, including first artist announcements, community programme highlights, and accessibility plans, will be released over the coming months.
