Wychwood Festival will return next year to celebrate its 20th edition.
The three-day event will once again take over Cheltenham Racecourse in Gloucestershire between May 29 and June 31, with Leeds indie giants Kaiser Chiefs confirmed to headline the Saturday night (May 30). Frontman Ricky Wilson said:
"Really looking forward to playing Wychwood next summer. Any festival that puts us top of the bill must have excellent taste so it bodes well. The summer is when we thrive, we are good at festivals and if you haven’t seen us before it’s a strong recommend. If you have seen us before then we hope to see you."
This year the festival hosted headliners Doves, James and Shed Seven. Festival Director Graeme Merifield said:
"After such an incredible milestone year in 2025, we wanted to come back with something really special and a first for Wychwood. Announcing Kaiser Chiefs as our Saturday headliner for 2026 feels exactly that. They’re a band that knows how to unite a crowd and bring pure joy to a festival field so I know this will be a moment to remember. I can’t wait for us to reveal more names soon, and welcome everyone to the racecourse at the start of next summer - I predict the 20th edition will be another fun-filled record-breaking year together!”
