Phoenix Festival 2026 – In Numbers!

What a fantastic achievement for Cirencester and everyone involved in making the Phoenix Festival happen!

The numbers really do speak for themselves.

17,650 visitors enjoyed the festival weekend.

1.2 million social media hits helped spread the word far beyond Cirencester.

156 local performers, aged from just 11 to over 70, took to the stage to showcase their talents.

2,500 volunteer hours were generously given by more than 70 volunteers.

£38,000 worth of in-kind infrastructure donations helped bring the event together.

And the total cost of putting on the festival weekend? £94,000!

It’s easy to forget just how much work, money and dedication goes into organising an event like this.

A huge thank you to the organisers, volunteers, performers, sponsors and everyone who came along to support the festival.

A brilliant example of what our local community can achieve together!
