Band Information for Linton Festival 2026

Linton Festival 2026 Backline               Linton Festival Bands 2026 – Timings

The festival site is The Alma Inn, Linton, Herefordshire, HR9 7RY (51.929465 -2.495252) about half a mile from Junction 3 off the M50. A map showing directions to the band entrance to the site is attached to this email (please drive slowly through the fencing yard). I’ve also included site sketch maps for information.

Here’s a list of contact numbers:

  • Mike Bertenshaw (Music Organiser) 07831 774660
  • Kevin Bryan (Upstage Ltd – Sound and Lighting) 07877 628410
  • Dan and Gemma Evans (Alma Inn) 01989 720355

Please can you confirm the names of people in your party so that we can arrange backstage passes, etc. Please also supply a mobile phone number of somebody in your party that is travelling with you so that we can contact them if necessary.

A performance/changeover timetable is linked to above.  We suggest you aim to arrive at least two hours in advance of your time slot to give plenty of time for unloading, setup, refreshments, relaxation, yoga, etc.

Please send us your current stage spec/tech rider if you haven’t already done so. We have some backline items that all bands are welcome to use (see link above) but it would be useful to know in advance which items you may wish to use.

We will have a merchandising tent area where CD’s & T-Shirts can be displayed and sold.

We will have a hospitality tent serving a quality buffet of cold food and drinks. To help with preparing the food, please let us know if there are any special dietary requirements additional to specific rider details.

All the best,

Mike B, and Mike M
