Well… that was Rivendell Festival 2026 🌿
Now that the dust has settled, we would like to say massive thank you to every single person who bought a ticket and came along. Without you, there simply isn’t a festival. Your support means everything to us, and we hope you had an amazing weekend.
To all of our bands and DJs – thank you for giving your time and talent to make the weekend what it was. The music is at the heart of Rivendell, and you were all brilliant.
A huge thank you as well to everyone working behind the scenes. Our bar staff, stewards, sound engineers, photographer, food vendors, toilet cleaners, first aid team, security, our juggler, everyone who helped build the site, everyone who packed it all away, and every volunteer who gave up their time to make the festival happen. Events like this only exist because so many people are willing to muck in.
Finally, thank you to everyone who supported us in any way, whether that was sharing our posts, telling your friends, lending equipment, offering advice, or simply cheering us on.
We’re incredibly proud of what this little festival has become, and that’s entirely down to the community that surrounds it.
Have a well-earned rest, and we’ll see you all next year.
💚 The Rivendell Festival Team
