Jeremy Clarkson Joins Star-Studded Lineup for the First-Ever Great British Farm-Fest
Jeremy Clarkson and the beloved cast of Clarkson’s Farm are set to headline a groundbreaking new event — the Great British Farm-Fest, a first-of-its-kind celebration of British farming, food, and rural life.
Taking place from May 22 to 24, 2026, at the historic Stoneleigh Park in Warwickshire — the former home of the Royal Show — this three-day festival promises to unite farmers, food lovers, and families for an unforgettable mix of entertainment, education, and live experiences.
A Celebration of British Farming
The Great British Farm-Fest aims to showcase the very best of Britain’s countryside, farmers, and local produce. The event will feature live music, working demonstrations, livestock competitions, machinery exhibitions, and a full-scale British Food Festival.
Festival Director Chris Hughes shared his excitement about the event, saying:
“There’s never been a more important time to celebrate our nation’s farmers — and never been a better moment for a great British festival that does just that.”
Clarkson’s Farm Stars Take Center Stage
Leading the lineup is Jeremy Clarkson, joined by Lisa Hogan, Kaleb Cooper, and Charlie Ireland — all familiar faces from the hit Amazon Prime series Clarkson’s Farm.
The group will bring their trademark humor and insight to the event, alongside Jeremy’s own Diddly Squat Farm Shop, The Farmer’s Dog, and the award-winning Hawkstone Brewery, which will provide festival-goers with a taste of premium British craft beer made from homegrown ingredients.
Music, Machinery, and More
By day, visitors can explore a sprawling 300-acre festival ground with eight show arenas, traditional farming skills, tractor displays, and hands-on field-to-fork experiences.
As night falls, the festival will shift gears with the All-Star Tractor Parade, followed by three nights of live music in the Hawkstone Music Arena.
Early confirmed acts include Alex James’ Britpop Classical and DJ Chris Moyles, promising a lively end to each day’s festivities.
Supported by Leading Agricultural Organisations
The event is backed by key agricultural and rural institutions, including The Royal Agricultural Society of England, The National Federation of Young Farmers’ Clubs, and Farmers Guardian.
It’s being organised by a team with impressive credentials, responsible for events such as The Game Fair, Taste of London, Pub in the Park, CarFest, The Big Feastival, Top Gear Live, and Blenheim International Horse Trials.
Honouring the Heroes of the Countryside
In the lead-up to the festival, a nationwide campaign will spotlight 100 Farming Heroes — individuals who have made extraordinary contributions to British agriculture. Each honoree will be celebrated both online and at the festival itself.
Farmers, families, and rural advocates are encouraged to share their stories for a chance to be part of this national celebration.
How to Attend
Tickets for Great British Farm-Fest 2026 go on pre-sale November 26, with more announcements expected in the coming weeks.
From tractors to tunes and everything in between, this landmark event is shaping up to be the ultimate celebration of British farming life — past, present, and future.
