Hay Music Festival returns for its eleventh year with three days of live performance, film and discussion around Hay-on-Wye. The 2026 theme, The Healing Power of Music, explores music's ability to lift the spirit and support wellbeing.
The public programme brings chamber musicians, jazz, expert discussion and film to St Mary's Church, The Globe at Hay, Hay Castle and Richard Booth's Bookshop Cinema. Individual events have their own times and ticket choices, while a Festival Saver is available for visitors planning several performances.
