The Long Road Festival will return in 2026.

The country, Americana and roots music celebration will host its seventh edition at its regular venue, Stanford Hall in Leicestershire, over the summer Bank Holiday weekend. Louisville's Bailey Zimmerman will headline the Saturday night (August 29) with his first UK performance in over two years. Festival co-founder Baylen Leonard said:

"Bailey Zimmerman is one of the most exciting live artists to emerge recently and we couldn't be more thrilled to welcome him to The Long Road. With his trademark showmanship and immense singalong hits, his mainstage set is going to be one to remember. Bailey's energy and TLR's status as a must attend event for UK music fans is the perfect match!"

Beyond the musical line-up, festival-goers can experience American-style street food and BBQ, craft beers, classic cars and bikes, line dancing, campfires, vintage rides, dog shows, family activities, Country-oke, and more.
