🎪 Solfest Afterparty 2025 – Official Poster Revealed!

What began life as a small crew party has grown into something much bigger — and now the Solfest Afterparty returns on Friday 3rd & Saturday 4th October 2025 in our traditional marquees for one final dance before winter sets in.

This intimate event is strictly limited to 300 people, and tickets are already flying — with 20% selling out on the first day alone.

Friday 3rd October – Tarns Dub Takeover

After having to cancel his headline set at Tarns Dub 2025, the legendary Ed Solo finally makes his long-awaited appearance, topping the bill for a full Tarns Dub takeover alongside a host of regulars.

Saturday 4th October – Utah Saints & The Old Time Sailors

Saturday night belongs to Utah Saints, bringing a huge headline set back to their Cumbrian roots — with Tim Utah himself originally from Brampton.

Earlier in the day, the incredible 20-piece Old Time Sailors will deliver a two-hour family matinee show, packed with sea shanties, folk, and raucous singalongs. The best part? Your Saturday evening ticket also covers you for the matinee performance.

Plus More To Come…

We’re also excited to welcome Little Rocket HiFi, fresh from curating the Outlook Reggae Stage at Solfest 2025, who will be hosting a dedicated chill-out space across the weekend.

And this is just the beginning — we’ll be announcing further bands and details in the days ahead.
