Open Arms Fest (Salisbury, United Kingdom) 2027

Open Arms Fest returns to Allenford Farms near Salisbury from Friday 9 to Sunday 11 July 2027, two days and two nights of dance music on farmland on the Hampshire and Wiltshire border. The festival is in its second year after an opening edition the organisers describe as a success, and they have committed to the same production levels with new additions around the site.

The programme runs across drum and bass, UK garage, house, jungle and disco, which puts it in the small British weekender bracket rather than the genre specialist camp. The scale is modest by design, with the organisers leaning on production and site build rather than on headline names, and the whole weekend is restricted to over 18s.

Allenford Farms sits near Fordingbridge on the edge of the New Forest, around half an hour by road from Salisbury and the same from Bournemouth, with camping on site for the weekend. Salisbury is the nearest railway station, roughly 90 minutes from London Waterloo. Tickets are sold through Skiddle and the festival’s own site, with the 2027 lineup still to be announced at the time of writing. Other UK dates are collected on our music festival page.
