Bingham Festival (BFest) is a much-loved community event bringing music, food and family fun to the heart of Nottinghamshire.
Now celebrating 10 years, the festival has grown from a small local gathering into a vibrant annual tradition filled with live music, local stalls and activities for all ages.
Safe, welcoming and run with community spirit at its core, BFest is designed to be enjoyed by everyone.
Whether you're a first-time visitor or returning for another summer of memories, we can’t wait to welcome you.
About BFest
BFest began with a simple aim: to bring the community together through music and shared experiences.
Run entirely by volunteers, the festival is proudly not-for-profit. Every ticket purchased helps support Bingham Town Sports Club, contributing to local sports facilities and recreational opportunities for the whole town.
From multiple stages of live music to family entertainment, food vendors and attractions for all ages, BFest is a celebration of what makes Bingham special - its people.
