The company behind an iconic UK music festival that has hosted leading acts for more than 20 years has collapsed into liquidation.
Solfest, an independent music and arts festival, made its debut near Silloth, Cumbria, in 2004. It has hosted a number of top music acts, including The Charlatans, James, The Fratellis, The Coral, Supergrass, The Levellers, and The Proclaimers. The last Solfest in August 2025 featured headliners The Doves and Leftfield. It is due to take place again from August 26-30, 2026, with tickets currently on sale.
