The 2025 Lineup!
​
Another Great Festival!
Hexham Bluegrass Festival returned again in 2025 with its exciting mix of local, regional, professional and amateur musicians and bands, workshops, dancing, sessions and events in the town. Located at the Bandstand on the Sele next to the Abbey, we again had two stages and an extended offering of fringe events. The weekend kicked off on the Friday with a Hoe Down Ceilidh at the community centre and a welcome jam session at the Bandstand.
