First Wave of 2026 Lineup Announced

25th November 25
The first wave of our 2026 lineup has landed and it’s already shaping up to be an epic Bank Holiday Weekend at our first CarFest at Silverstone, 28-30 August.

For the first time ever, the absolute powerhouse that is Jessie J - global pop superstar, vocal queen, and all-round entertainer, will be headlining CarFest on Friday! She’s joined by living legend Tom Jones on Saturday, and chart-topping musician, songwriter and producer Nile Rodgers, bringing the iconic sounds of CHIC to Silverstone on Sunday for one unforgettable night.

And it doesn’t stop there… our good friend and chart-topping legend Rick Astley is back, along with CarFest favourite Rick Parfitt Jnr with his high-energy band, Sophie Ellis-Bextor is ready to blow us all away (hey), plus the phenomenal Scottish duo The Proclaimers, are guaranteed to have the whole festival singing along.

Alongside our music lineup, we’re also announcing an incredible wave of talent across our talk stages, bringing inspiring stories, brilliant conversations and unforgettable moments to every corner of the festival. And this is just the beginning…

Tickets are officially going back on sale on Wednesday 26th November at 8am, and as a special gift, we have decided to FREEZE tickets at 2025 prices for a limited period.
