REV UP YOUR SENSES

Live music at this years festival

Get ready to shift gears from the roar of engines to the rhythm of the beat! This year, the Bath Festival of Motoring and Music is officially cranking up the volume. We’ve expanded our horizons to bring you a high-octane soundtrack that matches the prestige of the classic machines on display.

In 2026, the festival is “Bigger and Better,” and our live music lineup is no exception. Whether you’re a fan of vintage soul, contemporary rock, or smooth jazz, we’ve curated a diverse programme designed to keep the energy high all weekend long.

Two Stages, Double the Talent

We are proud to host two dedicated performance stages, ensuring that the music never stops:

Headline acts and “old favorites.” Expect crowd-pleasing anthems and high-energy bands that will have the whole family dancing on the grass.

Also fresh new talent and local break-through performers. It’s the perfect place to pull up a deckchair, grab a drink from the bar, and find your new favorite artist.

At its heart, the Bath Festival of Motoring and Music is a community event organised by the Rotary Club of Bath. While the cars are the stars, the music provides the soul – helping us raise vital funds for local charities.

So, whether you’re here for the chrome and carbon fiber or the soaring vocals and guitar solos, join us for a weekend where automotive heritage meets the very best in live entertainment.

Admission includes access to all live music performances.
