The first three acts for the 2026 MKF tribute festival in Milton Keynes, Buckinghamshire, have been confirmed by organisers ahead of the August Bank Holiday weekend. The event will take place on Saturday 29 and Sunday 30 August 2026 at Campbell Park Amphitheatre, which is managed by The Parks Trust.
Organisers from UK Tribute Festivals announced that the first headline acts include tribute bands for Queen, Arctic Monkeys and Oasis. The performing tribute acts — Flash (Queen tribute), Antarctic Monkeys (Arctic Monkeys tribute) and Oasish (Oasis tribute) — will lead a weekend that typically attracts more than 20,000 attendees across the two days.
Local businesses such as hotels and taxi firms can now begin preparing for the large crowds expected in Milton Keynes over the bank holiday weekend. Early ticket information and event details are available through the MKF website helping families and visitors plan travel and accommodation in advance.
The festival has grown from a single-stage event in 2019 to a three-stage festival, remaining a lower-cost, family-friendly option for live music fans. Local updates regarding traffic and further line-up additions are expected to be shared by MKFM 106.3FM and other local partners as the event date approaches.
