Now in its seventh year, Elmore Festival returns from 5 - 8 August 2026, bringing four days of world-class chamber music to the beautiful 13th-century Church of St. John the Baptist in Elmore, Gloucestershire.

Renowned for combining exceptional musical standards with a warm and welcoming atmosphere, the festival has become one of the South West's hidden cultural gems. This year's programme features an outstanding line-up of internationally acclaimed artists, including Trio Kagura, Talland Quartet, Immy Churchill with Scottie Thompson's Jazz Trio, double bassist Toby Hughes, pianists Victor Lim and Kanako Mizuno, clarinettist James Gilbert, organist Timothy Stewart, and classical accordionist Alise Siliņa.

Alongside its acclaimed classical concerts, the festival's popular Jazz Night returns on Friday 7 August, while masterclasses and performance opportunities continue to support talented young musicians. Concertgoers can also enjoy locally sourced refreshments before and after performances at the Festival Bar, making Elmore Festival an unforgettable celebration of outstanding music in a uniquely intimate setting.
