Zig Zag Fest 2026 Thank You!

Selborne's Annual Beer, Wine and Music festival

Zig Zag Fest 2026 is over, and it was a record breaker. More bands than ever before across three days! A fantastic showcase of local talent and once again supporting so many young bands playing excellent, original music.

For the first time we experimented with a "quiet" Thursday evening featuring four acoustic acts. This was very well received and will be repeated in 2027.

As usual there's a lot of people to thank. Our fabulous sponsors for ensuring we're financially viable. All the volunteers that helped out on the bars, the door or selling tokens. The Selborne WI for the delicious village hall catering.

Big shout out to all the bands Fate of the Magpie, Amy Lucas, Red Sun, Becky Brown, Dahlia's Comet, Chili Rage, Baz & Dave, Monochrome Dreams, Pip Lucas, The Lurxx, The Hedge Inspectors, Boey, Two for Joy, Callum Granger, The Zig Zag Band and Bridestone.

Finally, thank you all the people who bought tickets and came along to listen, laugh, dance, eat, drink and be merry!

Next year's festival will run from Thursday September 30th - Saturday October 2nd 2027.

Zig Zag Fest Manifesto

The festival is not run for profit, breaking even is good enough for us! Any profit we do make is spent on village community projects. Our main aims are:

  • Promoting the village, the village hall, the pubs and other businesses.
  • Inclusivity - bringing people together from all backgrounds
  • Keeping ticket and drinks costs low.
  • Paying our evening bands. Gone are the days when small bands could make money from selling their music. Spotify has put and end to this. We look after our headliners.
  • Sustainability - we're trying to minimise use of single use plastics. Making a souvenir glass each year and including it in the ticket price helps. Where we use the occasional plastic cup it's made from recycled plastic (rPET) and can be recycled again.
