Hello to all you Blues fans from beautiful Upton upon Severn!

As Winter turns to Spring and Spring turns to Summer, thoughts for a lot of us turns to, of course,

to the Upton Blues Festival (2026 edition)

Boy have we got some fun in store for you all this year! Once again across the three main stages (Meadow, Acoustic Roots and Riverside) plus the Campsite stage, as well as all the pub venues of Upton, we will have a veritable smorgasbord of Blues and Blues based music (as well as other styles) for your listening, dancing, clapping and tapping pleasure throughout the weekend (with things kicking off on the campsite stage and in the pubs on Wednesday).

With headliners like Brave Rival, Aynsley Lister, Kyla Brox and King Pleasure (to name but a few!) ready to roll, its now merely a matter of months, if not weeks before Upton comes alive once more to the sounds, smells and sights of great times, great friends and great tunes …. you can almost feel it!

The UBF team are currently hard at work behind the scenes organising, booking and preparing for our best festival yet and we can’t wait to welcome you all back this July, old friends as well as new.

Not long now – we’ll see you all down there!
