What time does the New Wine Festival 2026 start and end this year?

Tuesday 28th July 2026 is delegate arrival day (from 9am) and the first main sessions for adults and 5-18s kick off that evening. Team members are asked to be onsite for setup and Team Commissioning on the afternoon Monday 27th July 2026.

The final day of New Wine is Sunday 2nd August 2026 and this is a full event day finishing at 11pm. Delegates can either leave after the evening sessions or before 11am on Monday 3rd August 2026.

If you plan to leave on or before Sunday, you'll need to book an 'early departure slot' via our app or website which limit traffic flow onsite during those days, and abide by some specific direction and conduct rules. No vehicles can depart the camping villages after the main sessions on Sunday, so all departing this day must packup during the day in their pre-booked slot only and move vehicles back to the car parks to depart from there in the evening.
