An event that kickstarts the summer months, providing special memories that will live on long after the last note fades.
The team behind Above Below is dedicated to curating an intimate and magic experience spread across three distinct stages: the Beacon, the Stone Circle, and the Coombe. Each stage has evolved to possess its unique identity, forging personal connections with the attendees.
The carefully balanced selection of music and styles is elevated by masterfully designed audio systems, ensuring the high-quality sound for which this festival has become renowned. It's a place where the synergy of atmosphere, artistry, and community creates a truly memorable and immersive experience for all who join.

Above Below’s Co-Founder Dan Peplow speaks on the announcement, “Hard to believe it's our 4th year at Above Below — a journey and one big ride. Grateful to everyone who's been part of this labor of love so far. Now January has hit, weekend site visits are becoming routine, ideas are in full flow and we have to resist the temptation to share everything all at once - just pure excitement really.
Everything is falling into place. From chatting with artists and curating the lineup to creating artwork, countless evening meetings, and planning around the day jobs. It's all coming together, and we can't wait to hit those dance floors again and feel that special energy the attendees and artists bring!”
As well as music, the festival will host a series of educational talks and wellness workshops from industry professionals across the three days. More artist announcements and updates on talks and workshops will be announced through our Above Below platforms over the coming weeks.
Third-release tickets will be available on Tuesday, 30th January, with the option to register for first access via the Above Below website and purchase via Ticketpass. 50% of the ticket booking fee will be donated to Hector’s House - a charity working within Above Below’s local community to support suicide prevention and mental health awareness efforts.
