The countdown is on with less than a month to go until Poynton Party in the Park returns for its 2026 edition, promising a full day of live music and family entertainment.
Event Details and Sponsorship
The festival, which celebrates its 21st year, takes place on Saturday, June 6 and has received backing from Poynton Town Council through its community grants fund. Leading Poynton-based company Hall & Pickles returns as headline and stage sponsor, helping support the annual 'festival-in-a-day' event.
Headline Acts and Performances
This year's line-up features major tribute acts, including The Killaz UK, performing hits from The Killers, alongside a Coldplay tribute act delivering a full live experience complete with lighting effects and pyrotechnics. Robbie Williams tribute artist Tony Lewis also headlines the bill. He previously won acclaim on BBC's The One and Only and has performed across Europe in television and promotional appearances.
Expanded Attractions and VIP Area
Organisers say the 2026 event will feature its biggest production yet, with pyrotechnics, confetti effects, fairground rides, expanded food and drink stalls, and a new VIP area with premium seating and table service. Local performers will also take to the stage throughout the day, including returning favourites Monkey Harris.
