Pickering Rocks Family Music Festival 2026

Pickering… are you ready? Because Pickering Rocks is BACK – and this year we’re turning the volume all the way up 🔊

For one incredible day, our town transforms into a buzzing, music-filled playground packed with live bands, big energy, family fun, and that unbeatable community spirit that makes Pickering… well, Pickering ❤️

🎶 What’s it all about?

Pickering Rocks isn’t just an event – it’s a full-on celebration of music and community:

🎤 Open mic nights showcasing local talent

🍷 Pre-Rocks music event Sunday 3rd May

🎸 A huge FREE main event in the Market Place

🎡 Kids rides, family fun, and smiles everywhere

🍻 Live music spilling into pubs across town into the night

👉 And the best bit? It’s completely FREE for everyone to enjoy

⚡ Why we need your help

Here’s the honest bit…

Putting on Pickering Rocks costs serious money – over £15,000 last year alone. And we do it because we believe our town deserves something special. 

This festival only happens because of:

Local businesses

Community fundraising

And legends like YOU

💥 Why it matters

Pickering Rocks brings the whole community together, visitors into the town , opportunities for local musicians and a proper feel-good weekend you’ll talk about all year.

It’s music, laughter, and memories rolled into one. 

Even the price of a pint 🍺 can help keep the music playing.
