Politician Nigel Farage will visit Basingstoke, Hampshire, on Tuesday, 10 March 2026, to host a public rally at the Hampshire Court Hotel & Spa. The event is set to begin at 7pm and marks the formal start of the local election campaign for Reform UK in the town.

Residents are invited to the hotel in Chineham to hear directly from Nigel Farage, who currently serves as the Member of Parliament for Clacton. The meeting will focus on the party’s goals for the community and provide a chance for locals to meet their local election candidates.

The evening will also include a question-and-answer session where attendees can talk about national and local issues. This visit is part of a broader effort by the party leader to engage with voters and discuss political changes ahead of the upcoming polls.
