Set within the breathtaking Grade II* listed grounds of Borde Hill in West Sussex, the inaugural Borde Hill Summer Series is set to become one of the South East’s standout live music events of summer 2026.
Taking place from 13–15th August, the new open-air concert series combines world-class live music with one of the region’s most spectacular heritage landscapes, transforming the historic estate into a natural amphitheatre framed by rare trees, sweeping lawns and panoramic countryside views.
Designed as festival-style days with early access and full-day programming, the series offers audiences far more than a traditional evening concert. Visitors will be encouraged to enjoy curated food and drink offerings, and experience a relaxed atmosphere before headline performances begin under the summer sky.
The line-up brings together globally recognised artists across pop, soul, disco and electronic music. Nile Rodgers & CHIC headline the opening night alongside The Brand New Heavies and Craig Charles, followed by McFly with special guests The Feeling and Remember Monday. Closing the weekend, Becky Hill leads a high-energy festival programme on Saturday featuring Jax Jones, Netsky, High Contrast, Jaguar, Charlotte Haining and Abi Flynn.
With BBC Radio Sussex collaborating across the series with on-air interviews featuring artists and event organisers, Borde Hill Summer Series marks an ambitious new chapter for outdoor live entertainment in Sussex.
Two pairs of VIP tickets are up for grabs, including exclusive access to all three days of the festival.
