Hill Farm in Oxfordshire (near to Abingdon and Didcot) is set to welcome back one of the years purest indie festivals from the 23rd to 26th of July 2026. However, be quick – a record number of tickets have already sold before the line up even announced!

Next year’s Truck Festival is going to have a special place in the hearts of any fans of Noughties and Tens indie music as a wide array of old heroes gather to showcase special anniversaries and to break out the hits. Alongside a fine representation of the current crop of indie music it will surely be another superb and memorable event.

Amongst the newer wave of indie guitar bands with strong followings The K’s and The Royston Club are both set to play. Exciting names from the current scene include Mercury Music Prize winner’s English Teacher, Getdown Services, Keo, Kid Kapichi and Willie J Healy. Reading Indie Life family favourites The Lottery Winners will be bringing their brand of uplifting indie-pop and usual chaos.

It of course wouldn’t be Truck without appearances from The Oxford Symphony Orchestra and keep-fit legend Mr Motivator.
