The Soundle Weekend Music Festival is coming back in 2025 and will take place on Friday June 6 through Sunday June 8. We are returning to our original home in the Queen Victoria Hall Oundle since the Key Theatre in Peterborough has planned a complete roof replacement from next June and will take some months to complete. We did look at alternative early dates available at the Key in 2025 but they all clashed with other festivals such as Fusion and Winter's End. We loved our event in 2024 at the Key as it was such a wonderful venue with great facilities and brilliant staff. We will never forget the 2024 Soundle and we are already pencilled in back at the Key for June 5-7 2026. So, we will be there again.
In the meantime we are equally excited to be hosting next year's event in the lovely market town of Oundle coming back home briefly.
We will have 4 acts on Friday and start around 3:30pm followed by 10 - 12 acts over Saturday and Sunday with similar timings to the 2024 festival. More details will follow.
We are very pleased that Ebb will play again this year as headliners on Saturday night following their triumphant slot as last minute replacements for Long Earth in Peterborough. It was such a shame that illness prevented Long Earth playing at that one but the great news is that they will also be playing next year's Soundle too.
We are also pleased that Ebony Buckle has agreed to headline what looks like a cracking lineup on the Friday with Kyros heading up the roster and to close the Festival in the Sunday night headline slot.
Also on the bill are Abel Ganz, Genius The Fool, Nick Penny, Oundle Loves Singing, Ruby Dawn, The Wood Demons, Trilogy, Evi Vine, Storm Deva, Graham Harris (wow, yes!!!) and Teiger. We are also very pleased that Holt Vinyl will join us for Vinyl activities on the Sunday only as 'Postmaster Flash'
Ticket prices are being kept reasonable and hopefully affordable with the Early Bird 3 day Weekend tickets being on sale at £90 plus fees until Sep 30 2025.
Following this from October 1 prices will be £120 for a full 3 day ticket, £40 for under 18's full weekend, £35 for a Friday day ticket, £55 for day tickets on Saturday and Sunday.
The Queen Victoria Hall, situated on West Street, stands as a testament to Oundle's enduring community spirit, a public hall established to honour Queen Victoria's legacy. Administered by Oundle Town Council as a registered charity, its purpose remains steadfast: to provide a versatile space for the people of Oundle and the surrounding district, serving as a vital local and regional event hub.
Within its walls, a sense of history permeates the air, subtly mingling with the scent of polished wood and the quiet rustle of velvet stage curtains. The main hall, equipped with a comprehensive lighting system, offers a refined yet adaptable setting, capable of transforming from a formal presentation space to a vibrant performance arena.
Practical considerations are well-addressed, ensuring broad access. The venue offers wheelchair accessibility via a dedicated side entrance and is fitted with a hearing loop system. A licensed bar is available for events, and baby changing facilities are conveniently located within the disabled toilet. While the hall itself does not provide parking, several public car parks are within a short walk.
Throughout the year, the Queen Victoria Hall hosts a diverse calendar of engagements. Its stage welcomes theatrical productions and musical performances, while the main space accommodates exhibitions, local markets, and private functions. From community gatherings to larger public shows, the hall consistently delivers a varied programme for all interests.
