Zoe Gater

CoppaFest is returning to The Swan at Streatley this August, bringing a full day of live music, riverside activities, family entertainment, food and drink, fireworks and late-night celebrations to the banks of the River Thames.

The Swan at Streatley is set to host another unforgettable summer celebration as CoppaFest returns to the riverside venue on Saturday 29 August 2026.

Set against the stunning backdrop of the River Thames, the one-day festival promises a packed programme of live music, family entertainment, food, drink and outdoor experiences, making it the perfect way to spend the August Bank Holiday weekend.

From midday, guests can enjoy live performances from local artists, complimentary boat trips and paddleboarding on the Thames, plus family-friendly activities from entertainment experts Sharky & George.

Throughout the day, the riverside grounds will come alive with immersive entertainment, relaxed festival vibes and plenty of opportunities to enjoy the setting at The Swan at Streatley.

As the sun goes down, the festival will move into its evening celebrations, with headline act Platinum Queen taking to the stage to perform some of Queen’s most-loved hits. At 9pm, fireworks will light up the skies above the Thames before a resident DJ keeps the party going late into the night.

Food and drink will be a major part of the experience, with festival-goers able to enjoy dishes from The Lawn Bar & Grill, freshly made wood-fired pizzas, artisan ice cream from The Real Scoop, outdoor bars and a selection of festival favourites from food and drink partners.

For those looking to make the occasion extra special, VIP tables offer a riverside experience for groups of up to six guests. The package includes a reserved space for the evening, a magnum of Nyetimber on arrival, a sharing feast served from the grill, priority access to boat trips and the perfect spot to enjoy the live music, fireworks and DJ set.

General admission tickets include access to all live entertainment, family activities, boat trips, paddleboarding, fireworks and the festival grounds. Adult tickets cost £16.50, while child tickets are £11.

Whether you’re heading along for the music, looking for a family day out or simply want to enjoy a summer evening beside the Thames, CoppaFest offers a fun-filled festival experience in one of Berkshire’s most scenic riverside settings.

CoppaFest takes place on Saturday 29 August 2026 from 12pm until midnight at The Swan at Streatley.
