This website features “The British Country Music Festival“. We showcase artists, bands, and songwriters from the British country music and Americana genres. The 2026 festival lineup and the country music festival programme are accessible on the website. Metropolitan festival promoters, Fit The Bill Limited, promote the British Country Music Festival.

We are the only Festival dedicated to putting UK Country & Americana Music artists on an equal footing with International guests.

The Festival focuses on country music artists from the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland and the Republic of Ireland. Each year, we invite guest artists from the broader world of country music, including America, Canada, Australia, and Europe.

The Festival hosts No Chords But The Truth and The British Country Music Festival podcasts.

We aim to be the best resource for country music festivals in the UK in 2026. The Festival is all about music discovery. Introducing new, upcoming artists and new music to our fans is vital as it gives homegrown UK country & Americana artists their first headlining spot.

The website also builds a directory of UK-based country music. The guide will include country music artists, country music media in the UK, and UK country music gigs. We will also answer the question, “What is country music?” with particular emphasis on the UK country music scene.

We programme music from a broad range of country music styles, including traditional country music, contemporary country music, country rock, and country blues. We also consider Western swing, Americana music, country pop, bluegrass, gospel, country soul, folk, acoustic, and roots music. We embrace and promote the talent of the UK’s original singer-songwriters.
