DedFest returns for its third incredible year at Crockstead Farm.
2026 sees an exciting evolution. While still rooted in the same beautiful Sussex setting, the festival moves into the Distillery Courtyard, creating a more intimate, atmospheric, and exclusive experience. This new space brings you closer to the music, the artists, and the heart of what DedFest is all about.
Celebrating grassroots talent in a truly special environment. With a reputation already building from previous years, including standout headline performances from Dutch Criminal Record and Gaffa Tape Sandy, DedFest continues to champion the very best in emerging local music.
This year’s lineup is better than ever, with 11 bands and DJs soundtracking the day, culminating in a headline set from last year’s breakout favourites........... ? ;-)
Expect an electric mix of incredible local acts, all supported by a passionate community of independent businesses and partners including Ooosh Tours, Brighton Electric Studios and Folkingtons Drinks.
DedFest is proudly family and dog-friendly. Freshly prepared, locally sourced food and a fully stocked bar featuring spirits distilled on-site, beer from Lewes brewery Abyss.
With limited capacity in this unique new setting, tickets are strictly exclusive and they won’t hang around for long.
