Warwickshire's Eurovision Festival is set to return this May (2026)

This year's festival will return to Leamington Spa on Saturday 16 May 2026 and will include a free set by the UK's leading ABBA tribute act.

Last year, the festival attracted over 10,000 visitors during the day, with 3,000 staying for the evening screening.

This year's headline addition is a full live performance from one of the UK's premier ABBA tribute acts, taking to the stage from 6.30 to 7.30pm free of charge.

Leamington families, friends and Eurovision fans can enjoy one of the ABBA tributes in the UK without a ticket fee, before the Eurovision Grand Final, which will be screened live on an even bigger outdoor screen from 8pm.

From 11am, the Pump Room Gardens will be a full‑day festival with market stalls, crafts, children's entertainment and an expanded selection of street food and drink.

New for this year is the silent disco, with daytime sessions for kids and evening sessions for adults. All silent disco sessions are pre‑bookable in advance online at £3 per person. Booking slots will open soon.

The event remains a celebration of community, brought by CJ's Events Warwickshire, a family‑run local business committed to creating joyful moments for local residents.

Jamie Walker, CJ's Events Warwickshire: "Eurovision has become one of our favourite days of the year, and we love seeing the Gardens full of families, friends and fans just having a brilliant time together. Being able to put on a free ABBA tribute set this year feels like a real gift to the town. We're a small family business at heart, and events like this remind us why we do what we do."

PO'Sh Creative return as festival sponsor, supporting the event with creative assets and the signature digital scorecard that lets attendees vote along live from their phones, whether they are in the Gardens or watching from home.More details, updates and booking information can be found here.
