The three-day festival ran from Friday, July 31, to Sunday, August 2, with a full programme of bands, performers and activities. Friday’s opening night, from 6pm to 11pm, saw performances from We Are The Lost Boys, drag act Remymelee, and covers band Freeze. Saturday began at midday with a children’s DJ set from DJ Bridges and a popular visit from the local fire engine, which stopped by between call-outs. Johnny G entertained younger festival-goers with a puppet and magic show, followed by a performance from The Great Day Choir. Organisers said they were 'delighted' to welcome people back for another year and thanked everyone involved for helping make Pucklefest 2026 a memorable community celebration.
