Amesbury Carnival - Solstice Sounds 2026

🌅🎶 Solstice Sounds is returning for 2026 and it’s set to be bigger, bolder and better than ever. 🎶🌅

After the huge success of its debut year, Solstice Sounds is back, building on everything that made last year’s event such a standout moment of the Amesbury Carnival weekend 🎡✨. The inaugural event brought the community together for an unforgettable midsummer celebration of live music, atmosphere and togetherness and the feedback was loud and clear: bring it back… and make it bigger.

💬🎧 What we learned from year one has shaped every part of 2026. Audience feedback, performer insight and on-the-ground experience have helped refine the event layout, improve flow, enhance production and elevate the overall experience. This year’s event will feature an exciting headline act, alongside a carefully curated line-up designed to build energy from golden hour through to nightfall 🌇➡️🌙.

🎤🕺 Set once again within the buzzing Amesbury Carnival…
