The UK’s “only black-tie music and arts festival” will return to the beautiful riverside in Henley-on-Thames.
Henley Festival, presented by Hemani, promises five nights of music, arts, and celebration from Wednesday, July 8 to Sunday, July 12, 2026.
Taking place by the riverside at Henley-on-Thames, the festival promises a unique experience.
According to the organisers, “pop, world, classical, folk, and jazz music” alongside other activities such as comedy, cabaret, visual arts, sculpture, roving performers, dining, drinks, dancing, and fireworks, will all be on offer throughout the event.
The celebration is more than just an event, as the festival doubles as a charity supporting budding talent through its RISE programme.
The initiative offers a platform for emerging musicians and visual artists whilst aiding young individuals aspiring to work behind the scenes.
The event runs from Wednesday, July 8 to Sunday, July 12, 2026
