Buckle & Boots returns to Whitebottom Farm from 22–24 May 2026 for a milestone moment – the 10-year anniversary of one of the UK’s most beloved country music festivals.
Set in a scenic riverside valley in Stockport, this special edition promises the biggest celebration yet, with a full weekend of UK and international country artists, immersive experiences, and that unbeatable festival community spirit.
Festivalgoers can expect intimate performances, main stage anthems, and rare moments with artists both on and off stage. From the fan-favourite Hawkstone Bar (now boasting over 100 taps and the longest pour in the country) to gourmet food from local chefs and live fire cooking demos, the festival continues to elevate the country lifestyle experience.
The 2026 edition also features:
An expanded artisan shopping village
Riverside and open-field chill zones
Golden-hour entertainment
Limited-edition 10-year merchandise and brand collaborations
Camping under the stars, fireside memories, and a shared love of country music all come together to mark a decade of Buckle & Boots. Whether it’s your first visit or your tenth, this year is set to be unforgettable.
