Looking at the festival map I absolutely love that their is a nod towards the poor soul who lost his tent and bike for the whole event (last year iirc) and only found it when the site cleared out on the Sunday afternoon. True story.
ABR 2026
- Thread starter Glenboy
- Start date
Never watched any of this guys video's before, but this is a brilliant short intro to ABR. And shame on you Adam Reimann.
Off to browse some more of this guys video's now.

Good video to be fair, funny over lay narration. Getting excited now to be fair, i know theres been a few posts of crap bits but hell its a big fecking event to arrange not everything can be perfect and if it was it would'nt be an adventure
On A side note where are most people considering camping? i say this as i was looking at the map and the event and saw they do an internal bus route running all day on the site, so i was thinking being further away like stables camping near the entrance i can still get to the main area easy enough but should be more space for camping and quicker to nip onto the roads if heading out thats my logic, but someone might have a better take? cheers all
I have friends that camp and use the bus and they say it’s great.
In the past the marshals have been very relaxed and if you came on the Friday you could camp in the Thursday VIP field, which is closer to the attractions.
However, apparently, there will be 20,000 people coming this year and they will be a lot stricter on camping and movement in general so you might not have much choice.
But we’ll see

Seems to be the norm these days ,keep on expanding until it become way way to big.(FOS .Goodwood revival)
It seems the ABR plc has turned into a 6 advertisement magazine banging on about the bloody ABR festival .
I checked out years ago.
Good luck to all 20,000 people.
I might be riding the bus all day with a few ciders
. As for the numbers ive never been before so i just got to give it a go and see how i find it. I usually like peace when i go camping all over, but also like a bit of music and company so will see how this pans out. 
All about the Money ……nowadays
Used to be a great event (last went in 22, with 10k)
I was speaking to an exhibitor yesterday and he wasn’t looking forward to going, not a bit ….but obliged to

I went last year for the first time and had a really good time. Arrived Thursday had a mosey around, some food , beers , watched the bands.
Friday managed a road ride on Ducati Multistrada and 700 Tenere then a dander around all of the stands. Watched some of the tent talk including TMF whose wife spoke better than him. Silent disco was one of the biggest laughs I’ve had in a long time.
Saturday more of the same which included a ride out to Clarksons pub and a nice lunch outside of the event.
Great selection of food and drink all reasonably priced.
If you like modern motorbikes, on road, off-road, meeting people, beers, music and generally having a good time I’d recommend it noting I’m a mere youth on this forum!

I’ve got my pin saved on my watch from last year. Was the perfect spot
This sort of area. It’s far enough away to be quiet but not too far to walk back and forth.
The buses didn’t have aircon last year.
pro tip.
Take a tic removal tool in your day bag/manbag
Something like this is an absolute godsend in the grounds of Ragley hall.
