Youth Beatz 2026 was launched on Tuesday 21st April with a live event at the Oasis Youth Centre in Dumfries. We were delighted to welcome young people from across the region to help kick off what promises to be the biggest and most exciting year of the festival yet.

Youth Beatz 2026 is set to be bigger and better than ever. The festival will run over a 10‑day period, with the Youth Beatz Fringe taking place across every Ward area of Dumfries and Galloway, leading up to the two main event days on Saturday 27th and Sunday 28th June at Park Farm, Dumfries.

The main event days will welcome 20,000 attendees per day, with Youth Beatz 2026 delivering a huge range of fun activities, interactive experiences, and musical performances from local and emerging young talent from across Dumfries and Galloway, as well as our main stage acts.
