Fairport Convention's own gathering turns a quiet Oxfordshire village into one big folk rock reunion every August. One single stage, three days, and a crowd that returns year after year for the band's traditional Saturday night closing set. The 2026 bill pairs Richard Thompson and Soft Machine with Turin Brakes and Hayseed Dixie, and a three day ticket includes camping in the surrounding fields.
Fairport's Cropredy Convention returns in 2026, running 13-15 Aug at Cropredy Festival Site, Cropredy. It is set up to work for families, so all ages are welcome.
Expect a village field, multi-generational, folk rock heritage feel. Folk, folk rock, rock fans will feel right at home, with past lineups featuring Fairport Convention & Friends, Richard Thompson, Soft Machine, Turin Brakes.
